Windows Genuine Advantage LegitCheckControl.dll 1.5.716.0 Bypass Download and Install Validation Patch and Crack
Microsoft has released an updated version for Windows Genuine Advantage program in the way of upgrading LegitCheckControl.dll file to version 1.5.716.0, on 30 October 2006. Currently not all PC will be deployed with this version of LegitCheckControl.dll. WGA v1.5.716.0 will be downloaded and installed on your Windows-based computer when you try to download certain applications from Microsoft such as DirectX, or when simply when trying to validate your copy of Windows installed on PC at Microsoft Genuine Software Validate Windows or click on “Validate Now” button on Genuine Microsoft Software - How to Tell.
There are a few fast release of patches and cracks for LegitCheckControl.dll v1.5.716.0 such as Windows.Genuine.Advantage.Validation.v1.5.716.0.Crack by team ETH0. However, the patch is not working fully, and or effective partially on certain Microsoft WGA protected services such as Windows Updates, as the patched LegitCheckControl.dll is actually an ‘upgraded’ of ‘fixed’ DLL from previous version. Since WGA version 1.5.708.0, simply ‘upgrade’ the previously working cracked LegitCheckControl to match the latest version number by using resource editor no longer works.
For more effective workaround to bypass WGA v1.5.716.0, visit the first method on this summary page, which is a registry hack trick, where you apply some WPA-related entries into the registry to make your Windows as if genuine, legal, and activated. However, the workaround seems to be reset once your reboot or restart your Windows.
For a more permanent fix (at least until next release of WGA), ESI has emailed a latest LegitCheckControl v1.5.716.0 patch (link removed due to complaint from Microsoft), which is a real fix after investigating for 5 hours on new WGA obfuscation and hidden code, and will patch directly the latest LegitCheckControl.dll to make the Windows passed genuine validation test. The working crack for 1.5.716.0 can also be downloaded here (link removed due to complaint from Microsft). With genuine Windows, users can easily download the latest application software from Microsoft, install the programs (unable to bypass the genuine Windows validation during installation, use specific application crack method by searching this site), and will not see any counterfeit non-genuine Windows warning notification message.
To use the patch, simply download the zip file contains the patch, extract the zip file. Close all Internet Explorer browser windows. Inside, there is an LegitCheckControl v1.5.716.0 Patch executable, double click on it to run it. Then click browse (… button), navigate to \Windows\System32 directory, and press Enter or click Open. Then click on Start button, and your Windows is now genuine.
Note that this patch can only be applied on unaltered, unmodified and original version LegitCheckControl v1.5.716.0, or else you will get a checksum or file size mismatch error. If you have applied other patches on LegitCheckControl, including those released by ETH0, delete the LegitCheckControl.dll from your \Windows\System32 directory, and go to the links to Microsoft website listed in first paragraph to try to validate your Windows. Download and install whatever WGA ActiveX program you are asked to install, then apply the patch.

[...] But I digress. Once Microsoft Customer Support has failed you (are you really surprised?), you’ve got a couple of options. Java injection (disabling the authentication via a java command entered into the Address bar on the browser) stopped working a few months back due to a recent Microsoft package. But you could take your newly-minted retail license keys, redoctor your install CD to be a retail version with a retail key, and be on your merry way. Or, you edit your DLL’s to eliminate the 30 day activation timer, and use WindizUpdate instead of Windows Update. WindizUpdate is designed to offer Windows Update functionality on Firefox, Mozilla, and other browsers that don’t suck as much as Explorer. And best of all, it bypasses Microsoft’s Genuine Advantage product authentication functionality, allowing you to update without authenticating. [...]

Those download links don’t work.

For Error 0×80004005: Unspecified error, Microsoft say it may be due to client computer tries to download automatic updates across a slow network connection from a computer that is running Microsoft Software Update Services (SUS), and client computer resets the connection to the server before the server has sent all the data to the client during automatic update detection.

Their is a new version of WGA 1.5.722.0
It will update to it when you try to validate. Since installing IE7, etc. requires you to validate before, I guess it’ll update it and render the validation incorrect, that’s why it might not work to install IE7,etc.

It doesn’t work long advice and not working fuck!
