Sorry, but "all the help, didn't!" doesn't make much sense.

What I meant to say was all the help that was offered didn't work. It's
early morning, fingers and brain are not in sync yet!

The problem was the one we spoke about last week with the Media issues. You
replied with a program starting with Auto something, I can't remember. I
don't know if that was a solution that someone in the group mentioned or
not, it was a few months ago. Anyway, I got frustrated with Ubuntu, and
then put the drive in the drawer.

Now I remember. That problem is easily fixed with Automatix. Easy, like
in six or seven clicks and wait ten minutes type easy. If you really
want help, install Ubuntu again and ask me on the alt.os.linux.ubuntu
newsgroup. I say this because I am already receiving a lot of flak for
posting what I do post and if I turn this into an Ubuntu help newsgroup,
Frank will probably die of a stroke because he will get so frustrated
and angry and we wouldn't want to do that to old Frank, now would we?

[cquirke (MVP Windows shell/user)]

Activation and Genuine Advantage are two different technologies
designed to address particular forms of "license erosion".


Activation is designed to bind a license to a particular PC, and is in
that respect similar to cruder methods (dongles, files that are
supposed to be at certain cluster addresses, etc.) that have been used
by other software vendors for years.

Activation is a static system it does not "call home". The
information it uses is derived from the local system's hardware.

The form of piracy this is designed to hinder, is the casual use of
one license on multiple PCs.


Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications (WGAN) is designed to alert
users who have licenses that are found to be invalid, e.g. conterfeit
as spawned by keygens, or stolen Volunme License Keys (VLKs) that are
not as effectively controlled via activation.

WGAN is a dynamic system, subject to upsdates on an ongoing basis.
The information it uses is thus updated on an ongoing basis, so that
licenses thought to be valid when the system was activated, can be
highlighted as invalid when this status is known.

The form of piracy this is designed to hinder, is large-scale theft of
VLKs and/or counterfeiting of MS's software.
