It took basically 5 minutes to figure out how to bypass this check. However, Microsoft can change his server part of the check in order to block this.

Updated: Since this page become popular on search engine, I’m now include the procedures to bypass Windows Genuine Advantage check here.

Here’s the procedure as it works (28 July 2005):

1. Block the ActiveX execution.
2. Choose the alternate method and download the GenuineCheck.exe

3. Right-click this executable and go the compatibilty tab.
4. Set the compatibily mode to Windows 2000.

5. Run GenuineCheck.exe.
6. Paste the code returned in the Browser.
7. Your windows would now have been validatest and off you go.

You can download Windows Validation Tool (GenuineCheck.exe) from here.

Update: for new visitors, above trick is no longer work. Please read through the comment below and try suggested bypass steps from others. From now on, I’ll try to mirror all of the recommended files, so incase the original file has lost, you can still download it here. Note that I DIDN’T check the files personally, so make sure you scan it for viruses before you try it.
