Windows 7 piratated copies are harmful

January 5th, 2009

Pirate versions of an early build of Microsoft’s latest operating system are available on p2p networks and also can be obtained through pirated cd sellers. Windows 7 is under final developer testing ahead of an expected commercial release later soon.

Fortify Software a software company claims,  there is no way of knowing whether or not hackers have tampered with the 2.44Gbyte file.

By using windows 7 pirate copies the user may experince bugs and malwares which will put thier system at high risk.

It is highly unlikely that any IT security application will protect users from internally coded malware in the operating system, said Rob Rachwald, director product marketing at Fortify.
