Microsoft added WGA (Windows Genuine Advantage) to its download and update websites. Today, Microsoft found a website on the Internet, they claimed that they had cracked the genuine verification on the Microsoft website. Users only need to download a scam called Trixie.ProgramAnd a Javascript script, you can bypass the genuine verification on the Microsoft website to download updates only for genuine users.
The cracking methods are divided into the IE user group and the Mozilla Suite/Firefox user group:
IE users only need to download and install Trixie and put the spoofed JS script in the scripts \ directory of Trixie software. Open IE and select the "trixie" option in "Tools" to seeWGA workaround.Then you can access Microsoft's download website and update website to bypass genuine verification.
After analysis, Microsoft's genuine verification mainly uses JavaScript management, which is not safe for the client's JavaScript. Trixie relies mainly on JavaScript to spoof verification programs. I believe Microsoft will improve its WGA verification program after discovering this vulnerability.

Windows Genuine Advantage + JavaScript = workaround

(July 28, 07:03 am est) Thanks for all the emails, I updated the IE Script with user-submitted scripts to resolve the freezing and also bypass WGA on Microsoft/Windows Update. do not email me about "simpler" methods (eg. manage Add-ons, blocked script )! I know about this already...

Continue. continue. click. click. click. sigh, my fingers cocould do without the extra clicking, hence why I came up with greasemonkey and Trixie scripts for bypassing WGA on Microsoft's download pages.

For Internet Explorer users:

    • You'll need to download Trixie and the relevant user script [thanks Mark S., macmonkey]. Simply download the. js file and drop it into Trixie'sScripts \Folder.
    • Fire up Internet Explorer (32-bit) and Click Tools> Trixie options. You shocould seeWGA workaround. If it's not already checked, check it. Uncheck the others if you don't want to use them (recommended ).
    • Visit Microsoft downloads or Microsoft Update to test it out!

For Mozilla Suite/Firefox users:

    • You'll need to download greasemonkey and the relevant user script. simply download. JS file to a temporary location (like the desktop), drag it onto a Mozilla Suite/Firefox Window and Click Tools> install user script. keep the defaults.
    • Visit Microsoft downloads to test it out! Note: Microsoft Update doesNotSupport Firefox.

For opera users:

    • The script for Firefox above works as-is in opera. instructions later.

For Konqueror/Lynx users:

    • You're kidding, right?
