Re: don't forget

said by Trel:
Don't forget, just because a version of windows is pirated, it doesn't mean it still can't spread viruses and worms etc. Allowing patching of pirated versions will also keep some of the legit versions safe.

Fine, then to use that reasoning allow only security patches, no driver or application or feature set updates.

As for all the attempted excuses in this thread, a thief is a thief. Sell 'em elsewhere.

Unbelievably...I agree with you

It doesn't seem that it would be very dificult for MS to have a "legit" and "illegit" update package at the WU site.

If you're "illegit", you get only the critical security updates.

SP2 is a critical security update, including such things as an enhanced firewall (which will help for those friendly RPC viruses).
