WGA - The "A" stands for Advertisments
,----[ Quote ]
| This is just lame. Using WGA as a marketing stream is bad enough, I
| thought this was about making sure that the customer is running a
| genuine copy of Windows, but running untargeted ads is worse still
| because this is just going to confuse and irritate customers.
