Do you mind explaining how to compress and add to i386 and (where and what to add when) update dosnet.inf & txtsetup.sif.

thnx

Once you do integrate the update, if you value your privacy as I do, you can effectively disable WGA with the following registry entry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{17492023-C23A-453E-A040-C7C580BBF700}]
"oldFlags"=dword:00000000
"Compatibility Flags"=dword:00000400

^^ That method is for children. get http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=39204

that cab, take out two .DLLs and copy them to OEM dir where u have "$$" folder and then regsvr LegitCheckControl.DLL. Or u can add them directly to I386 source folder and update dosnet.inf&txtsetup.sif. that's how big boys do it.

This download is multilingual or english only?

Senior integration:

dosnet.inf

d1,GWFSPIDGen.dll
d1,LegitCheckControl.DLL

txtsetup.sif

GWFSPIDGen.dll = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0
LegitCheckControl.DLL = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0

RunOnceEx

regsvr32.exe /S %SystemRoot%\system32\LegitCheckControl.dll

This works for internet explorer 6.

How can we disable WGA for Internet Explorer 7?

LegitCheckControl.DLL = 100,,,,,,,1,0,0

I'm stumped now. Which category do I put the entries in dosnet.inf and txtsetup.inf respectively?

I'd like that answered as well plzzz, i have made an educated guess which will prolly prove to be wrong

I've created a [Files] in dosnet.inf

As for txtsetup.sif I simply chucked it somewhere.

It seemed to have worked, but XP couldn't copy LegitCheckControl.dll. I've hex edited the LegitCheckControl.dll (fix to disable the feature), wondering the changed date/time have screwed it up.

regsvr32 /s LegitCheckControl.DLL

should probably work.

What about GWFSPIDGen.dll? Does it just have to be copied into \windows\system32 and not registered?

Basically, copy both

GWFSPIDGen.dll

LegitCheckControl.DLL

to $oem$\$$\System32 and then add

regsvr32 /s LegitCheckControl.DLL

-------------------------------------

Edit: Never mind. I just took a closer look at the cab file. GWFSPIDGen.dll does not have to be registered.

If they goes to system32 then:

txtsetup.sif

GWFSPIDGen.dll = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0
LegitCheckControl.DLL = 100,,,,,,,2,0,0

Where they go when installed normally? System32 or Windows folder?

There was no need to modify txtsetup.sif. Just registered the LegitCheckControl.DLL and it worked fine.
