Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

The user needs to get his Windows up and running again. Leave catching the crooks up to MS Legal and the police. If the user wants to provide info to MS that's great, but his basic need is to get his Windows back in shape.

The common sense thing to do is take advantage of the Genuine Windows
Advantage Kit (link in my other posting), provide MS with whatever
info they request, and move on.

Much cheaper to buy a legit copy and a lot less time and effort.

If I were to just shut up and do that, which may be the easiest way
out, I would certainly not hesitate one bit to take two minutes to
send an email to the piracy department at Microsoft! The the
company will not know where the complaint came from and they will
not be dealing with me, nor will it be on my dime, they will be
dealing with Microsoft lawyers! John

I disagree because that not only lets the pirates off scott free, but they will continue to screw up other's computers with pirated software. I'd hit BBB Online and MS Piracy to start, and go from there. Pirates deserve jail time.
