Just wondering if anyone has seen/noticed this URL for Microsoft:

http://thesource.ofallevil.com/genuine/default.mspx?displaylang=en

I ran across this today while I was running a search for "Microsoft Genuine Advantage".

If anyone has come across this has any information as to what it is all about I am interested in hearing about it.

Cheers!

Ippirate, there is at least one TR article on this slated for next week - "Make sure that your copy of Windows XP is Genuine."

:)

Or are you talking about "as opposed to those $9.95 XP/Office offers everybody gets in their email"?

by leee

There may be a promo at some point, but I know of at least one actual article coming.

Actually, that information is wrong. I was looking at the wrong IP address. If you ping ofevil.com you get the ip 83.149.67.207. If you do an IP whois you get an ISP in the Netherlands, www.axess.nl.

The domain was registerd at bulkregister.com in the USA. They "...allow our BulkRegister members full control over their domain name's DNS record. You can edit your domain name's A record, CNAME record, MX record and various other DNS settings."

So further information may be difficult to find.

Let's see, a mirror of an MS web page with an anti-piracy theme
is set up on a domain that resolves to an IP address that is
typically reserved for portable or local use, and the first one to
notice goes by the name of 'ippirate'...

Hmmmmmm...

Leee,

Apparently the URL is a little old. I found mention of it in NG posts dating back to 2K. It would appear that Billy is either a. To busy to care, b. sleeping on the watch or c. just doesn't give a flip.
