昨天我们得知本来发放给我们的OEM合作伙伴的特定产品Key被泄露了的报告.这个Key是和OEM年底预装在新销售PC上的Windows 7旗舰版(RTM产品)一起使用的.
因此,使用这个Key需要有台被发放(Key)的制造商的PC,我们正在和制造商协商以便从制造商购买正版Windows7的客户不会遇到验证Windows7的问题.与此同时,我们也将试图警告那些正在使用泄露Key的用户:他们正在运行一个非正版的Windows.没有PC会用这个Key销售! 请重视这点!
Windows 7已经包括一个改良的入侵侦查功能, 也作为"激活漏洞"(为人们)所知.
(我们)警告那些使用盗版的用户: 当泄漏的Key,安装的系统和Windows 7旗舰版配对,"据说"会有一个入侵被打开(原文 that is said to 不知道哪个b说的,很可能危言耸听 )
(发生)入侵和Key两者表明Windows"可能"不是正版.
Windows7包含的Windows激活技术是被设计来处理如上述这种情况的.
用一些工具和方式(破解)的用户应该预料到Windows会检测他们.
我们基本的目标是保护用户以免成为不知道(自己受害的)受害者
因为使用盗版的用户处在一个曝露在恶意软件和身份信息盗窃的更大风险中
有人最近问我, 我觉着在这里不值一提: 我们是否平等对待所有的漏洞来应对我们所见的新漏洞
我们的目标不是去阻止每个"疯狂的科学家"(研究破解的人)不要涉足(Windows 7).
我们的目的是去保护我们用户远离那些影响我们用户"所得所付"信心的商业盗版软件.
那将会继续成为我们的焦点, 正如我们继续发展我们的反盗版平台并且应对未来出现新的威胁.
英文原文:
Windows 7 OEM Product Key Leak
Yesterday we were alerted to reports of a leak of a special product key issued to an OEM partner of ours. The key is for use with Windows 7 Ultimate RTM product that is meant to be pre-installed by the OEM on new PCs to be shipped later this year. As such, the use of this key requires having a PC from the manufacturer it was issued to. We've worked with that manufacturer so that customers who purchase genuine copies of Windows 7 from this manufacturer will experience no issues validating their copy of Windows 7. At the same time we will seek to alert customers who are using the leaked key that they are running a non-genuine copy of Windows. It's important to note that no PCs will be sold that will use this key.
Windows 7 already includes an improved ability to detect hacks, also known as activation exploits, and alert customers who are using a pirated copy. There is a hack that is said to enable, when paired with the leaked key, a system to install and use a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate. Both the hack and the key are indications that a copy of Windows may not be genuine. The Windows Activation Technologies included in Windows 7 are designed to handle situations such as this one, and customers using these tools and methods should expect Windows to detect them.
Our primary goal is to protect users from becoming unknowing victims, because customers who use pirated software are at greater risk of being exposed to malware as well as identity theft. Someone asked me recently - and I think it's worth noting here -- whether we treat all exploits equally in responding to new ones we see. Our objective isn't to stop every "mad scientist" that's out there from dabbling; our aim is to protect our customers from commercialized counterfeit software that impacts our customers' confidence in knowing they got what they paid for.
