According to foreign http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/31646.html "> media reports, Microsoft's recent recruitment show that Microsoft is developing new anti-piracy mechanisms and pirated detection technologies for future software products.

Microsoft Jobs said the Windows Department will provide a new position that "helps Microsoft products get rid of hackers and pirates". The job was found by Microsoft observer Stephen Chapman (Stephen Chapman). Ms Chapman says Microsoft is looking for senior software developers with relevant industry experience.

For Windows 7, if the system is not genuine, Windows 7 notifies the user that the desktop wallpaper will become black. There is no doubt that Microsoft wants to further strengthen anti-piracy technologies for future versions of Windows systems.

Microsoft introduced Windows Product Activation (wpa,windows product activation) technology for the first time in Windows XP. However, pirates can still successfully crack the activation mechanism of XP, Vista and Windows 7. This February, Microsoft posted a WPA update for Windows 7 through its official website. Non-Genuine Windows 7 users if the update is installed, the computer desktop wallpaper will become black after the 30-day grace period.

It is reported that Windows 7 was first cracked in July 2009. The crack is related to Lenovo's OEM key, and Microsoft then quickly fixes the vulnerability.

In early March, Microsoft said the Windows 7 product license had sold 90 million sets. Analysts forecast that 300 million sets of Windows 7 product licenses will be sold by the end of 2010. Currently, Microsoft is developing Windows 7 SP1. The Windows 7 SP1 Beta Edition is expected to be released in June, with an official edition released in September.
