I have blocked this program and need to know what it is? I think I have been hacked and Phished and then this popped up so I blocked it. Is it a program I need? I am at my wits end trying to figure out everything that is going on. How do I get rid of a hacker? I think my Mcafee product has been corrupted as well.Thanks for any help! Please reply ASAP!

What operating system are you using? This particular forum is for Windows Server Security and I'm guessing that you're running XP, Vista, or Windows 7. If so, you'll get a better response here - http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7security/threadsThis may also help, but you should likely post in the forum I provided the link to above - http://www.google.com/search?q=wgasetup.exe&sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=&oe=Paul Adare CTO IdentIT Inc.

I appreciate any help I can get on the issues I am having. You haven't indicated which operating system you're using yet. If you're using anything other than Windows Server you should post in the appropriate forum.Paul Adare CTO IdentIT Inc. ILM MVP

Microsoft Genuine Advantage Support Center http://support.microsoft.com/ph/9860/en-us#tab0 You can contact Microsoft WGA specialists through email to consult WGA related issues. It is free of charge: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?gprid=9860&st=1

You provided a link to a site that provides a cracked/hacked version of one of the Microsoft Windows Genuine Advantage DLLs. That's not appropriate for this forum.Paul Adare CTO IdentIT Inc. ILM MVP---If that were so, the site would have been taken offline already. It's a help site. It provides people who have problems with Genuine Advantage with solutions microsoft will not provide. I disagree, the post is appropriate and relevant. There's nothing wrong in critisising microsoft. Lord knows I had my share of problems with microsoft software. Another line of sight is vital to development and -apparantly- solutions. I'm sure my post is NOT abusive.Good business is where you find it. Trust will empower your Endeavour.

What's the point of bumping your post? Did you even visit the site whose URL you posted? The site is clearly providing hacked DLLs designed to get around WGA. Just click the link you provided and read the right-hand column that lists previous posts. See all of the "CRACK"s listed? What in the world do you think those are?Paul Adare CTO IdentIT Inc.

An example of what? Someone downloading a cracked version of the WGA DLL. What is so hard for you to understand?Paul Adare CTO IdentIT Inc. ILM MVP

That ms makes software that just doesn't do ..... like I said before; if it was a hack&crack site it wouldn't be around that long.

You know what lets drop it.... Let’s agree on disagreeing Good business is where you find it. Trust will empower your Endeavour. Reliability and transparency shall form strong partnerships. Nothing exceeds lifes excess.

It is a hack/crack site, anyone can plainly see that the site hosts cracked versions of Microsoft DLLs which is in direct violation of Microsoft's EULA. Regardless of what you happen to think of Microsoft's WGA system, providing hacked or cracked versions of Microsoft OS files is a violation of the EULA and posting links to such sites here is wrong. I'm going to contact the forum moderators directly to have your posts removed. They are inappropriate for a Microsoft hosted forum. As far as your deciding that since the site is still operating that it can't be a hack/crack site, that is a logical fallacy. Microsoft can't possibly go after every single such site on the Internet, they simply don't have the resources.Paul Adare CTO IdentIT Inc. ILM MVP

You're the one that drew attention to this thread again by bumping your post. Since you reminded me, I'm going to pursue getting your original post with the link cancelled.Paul Adare CTO IdentIT Inc. ILM MVP

Fine, you do that. If any moderator agrees; my intentions are honourable and in no way malicious.If it is truly in voilation with ms' EULA I was defeneatly wrong to link to the site and I apologise. I'm simply trying to help people.Good business is where you find it. Trust will empower your Endeavour. Reliability and transparency shall form strong partnerships. Nothing exceeds lifes excess.
