Wanna hear more about the Windows 7 KB971033 Update? Installed Windows 7 SP1 and need to activate? You have come to the right place! Scroll down below for additional information on how to update and reactivate.
Read the Windows 8 Consumer Preview Review here!
I have also written how to re-activate your Limewire Pro License Key if you lost it with the latest version here.
*Updated 2/23/11* – Windows 7 SP1 Has been released so we went ahead and updated the steps.
For those of you who installed the Microsoft Windows 7 Activation Checker update (KB971033) you can still uninstall it. The reason that viewers such as you may want to uninstall it, is because of the surround rumors that this update creates a new process/service that will slow down your system and has been rumored to monitor the user. If you haven’t installed this, you can hide and prevent the Microsoft Windows Update Windows Activation Checker (KB971033) from installing by using the directions below.
Many of you, including Windows 7 SP1 users, need to use the EASY METHOD listed below. That is 100% guaranteed working.
1A. If you installed KB971033 Remove the patch using the steps below.
1B. If you installed SP1 and not the patch,go to step two.
2. Follow the easy method below (Windows Loader 1.9.7)
3. After that, restart your computer
4. You should be done. If not.. continue
5. Click the activation prompt to follow the official steps to validate your windows
6. Click the option to download the Microsoft file to re-validate your windows
7. The activator will detect your Watt 2.25 key and will act accordingly (this takes up to five minutes)
8. Reboot
9. Do a windows update check and hide that damn update! (If installed KB971033)
10. Try rearming windows afterwards if that didn’t work.

Download Limewire 5.5.2 Here! Latest LimeWire Provides Built-in AVG Anti-Virus

It is no secret that with file sharing comes lots of viruses. LimeWire, a once glorious file sharing program, has been getting worse and worse. There are almost no searches that you can do without running into corrupted downloads, viruses, and random advertisement files.
In LimeWire 5.5.0 Beta and above, they have incorporated AVG Anti-Virus. AVG runs silently in the background, requiring zero intervention. It even downloads the latest definitions via LimeWire automatically. It comes enabled by default and even scans partially downloaded files.
Theoretically, if all users upgrade to LimeWire 5.5.0 beta and above, all the viruses will be eliminated. In the real world this won’t happen but it sure as heck will help. I welcome this add-on for sure, although I would’ve preferred if they gave the user the choice whether to delete the file or not, as they currently do not.
