Microsoft Using Cracked Software - Piracy Maniac

OpaQue
Microsoft Sound files were founded to be edited with a Cracked Software copy of SoundForge.

Dont belive me ???

You can check that yourself by opening any file in the [Windows location]/Help/Tours/WindowsMediaPlayer/Audio/Wav folder in notepad or other editors of your choice and looking at the last line. There you will find a reference to SoundForge 4.5 and also a user called ‘Deepz0ne’ who happens to be one of the founders of an audio software cracking group called Radium.”

BINGO!

You know, I really wonder how it happened. As much as I would like to think so I doubt that Bill Gates stole a pirated copy from radium and then gave it to his employees shouting "Hahaha! I haev stolne teh piraet softwear!111eleven. OMG Im teh 1337!1".

It's not even certain that any MS employee has touched a pirated version of Soundforge. The files could have very well been made by someone else and pulled by MS from some public domain sound clip library.

Of course, it's not unlikely that a MS employee just didn't want to go through the hassle of applying for money to buy SF tongue.gif

"doubt that Bill Gates stole a pirated copy"

Why not ? He has stolen many other things ( allegedly smile.gif ) for example he created Windows after talking Steve Jobs into supplying him with two Mac's to create a spreadsheet for the Mac operating system, ( but Steve Jobs stole GUI from Xerox (allegedly smile.gif )and the number of companies he has "formed a partnership" with and then subsequently pulled out of the parntership ( after acquiring the knowledge they needed no doubt ) and created their own version of that software ( eg: OS2 became Win NT I believe)
I can't remember the names of all the companies now - but I do know that Microsoft teamed up with more than a couple of companies then split - only to later offer a simliar thing ( usually free ( well - included in purchase price of Windows) ) so that the other company virtually died.
Bill Gates is _probably_ the biggest software pirate that ever lived ( if news reports are to be believed - or the movie ) - thats why they are so paranoid about anyone using their stuff for free no doubt smile.gif

no they didnt. GUI was xerox's invention. Mac offered to help them with it, ie market it,improve it. So mac went to xerox found out exactly how it worked and then made their own version of it.
QUOTE(Pirates of silicon valley)
At the Apple camp Steve Jobs is invited to see the graphical user interface which has been developed by Xerox. Xerox had developed the mouse, and standard interface styles we all know today. But the company big whigs thought it was a silly idea and agreed to let Apple look at everything they had. Apple naturally stole everything they could.

So what if windows used GUI system? Copying an idea is not an issue (if you haven't noticed there's multiple programs for any type of job you want to do), it's not like he stole the source and made one or two modifications and said it was his own.

Most linux programs are just copies of other programs, be they for pc or mac... they just have different source code.

If it wasn't for that you wouldn't have any choice about what software you use... there'd be only one compiler for each language, one IDE, one browser, one everything (otherwise it's theft... *rolls eyes* ).

And no matter what you say about Bill Gates now... the fact is, he was part of making computers more user friendly... at that point, computers were still a "fad" that people would get over fast enough.

Or most likely buying competitors. Have a look at Hotmail when it first came out, before Gates and his MSN web portal bought it out, thus becoming MSN Hotmail. Another case could be realplayer, which iirc Microsoft was interested in, but RealNetworks wasnt interested, thus leading to Microsoft making Windows Media Player in competition to Winamp and Realplayer at the time. There has been other developers around as well, Apple IPOD and their itunes software is another Media Player software. Also to further add, various DVD player software has popped up since.

well its not Bill, its the person who created the sound files which could be anyone in MS.
And its no joke.
The cracking team doesn't exist anymore. But they discovered it when they met for some event, I think the birthday of the guy who cracked the software and decided to surprise him by revealing this whole thing.

Really funny if you ask me. Another thing is that Sony now holds the rights to the SoundForge software although I doubt they will try sueing MS...

Yes, you are right! I have checked it with WinHex and I can see the Group and the ID you mentioned. It is easy to hide some texts in JPG files and Wav files, and I wonder whether this is a joke by one of M$ employees or really Bill is using some piece of software.... Interesting...
