Ühes Saksamaa foorumis levib õpetus, kuidas muuta tavaline Windows XP arvuti selliseks, et saada tasuta uuendusi aastani 2019.

Selleks tuleb 32-bit Windows XP registris teha lihtne väike häkk ja muuta POSReady 2009


Pole teada, kaua see auk lahti veel on.

Kuskil oli veel kirjas, et kui sa seda kasutad, siis võivad need POSile mõeldud uuendused su mitte-POS Windowsi sootuks hävitada. Niiet, backup first.

Väikseks ääremärkuseks - seda õpetus on juba, eilsest alates, üleval väga paljudel netilinkidel.

PS: Ja siinses foorumis on olemas seesama jutt juba eilsest ka XP enda teemas.

Mis sellise nupukese point võiks tavalise dumbuser arvutikasutaja jaoks olla, seda enam, et on mainitud ära asjaolu, kuna uuenduste sobivus tavalise home/pro xp süsteemiga on testimata ja iga uuendust tulekski sobivuseks eraldi testida, tagamaks süsteemi töökindlust.
Kodukasutaja seisukohast..Ei, tänan pakkumast, kuid ei.
Mingid väga erilised süsteemid ja vajadused peaksid olema, et sellise trikitamisega oleks mõistlik tegeleda. Mida sa aga trikitad, kuna erinõuetega süsteemid üldjuhul peavad tõrgeteta ka toimima.

Vb. win defenderi toitmiseks?
Lihtsam on vist tõesti upd. maha keerata, kui hakata neid iga kord sorteerima.

Niipalju väikseks lisaks, et ega XP ise polegi nii väga suur turvarisk, suurim turvarisk on ikkagi XP IE8, kuna selle osad turvaprobleemid on juba pikemat aega likvideerimata.

...The critical flaw allows cybercriminals to run code on computers after someone has visited a malicious website. The flaw is serious for users of the now end of life Windows XP operating system.

A previous Internet Explorer flaw was recently patched for XP but Microsoft has yet to offer any security update for this latest threat.

Microsoft said it hadn't fixed the security hole yet because doing so was complicated:

"We build and thoroughly test every security fix as quickly as possible. Some fixes are more complex than others, and we must test every one against a huge number of programs, applications and different configurations."

With a security update yet to emerge Internet Explorer 8 users are advised to upgrade their browser, with XP users once again urged to move to a newer operating system.

The security hole can also be closed by setting Internet Explorer 8's Internet Security Zone feature to High and by disabling Active Scripting....

Microsofti enda vastus selle hacki olemasolule:

Microsoft warns against XP update hack -- suggests users 'upgrade to Windows 8.1' instead

Microsoft said:

We recently became aware of a hack that purportedly aims to provide security updates to Windows XP customers. The security updates that could be installed are intended for Windows Embedded and Windows Server 2003 customers and do not fully protect Windows XP customers. Windows XP customers also run a significant risk of functionality issues with their machines if they install these updates, as they are not tested against Windows XP. The best way for Windows XP customers to protect their systems is to upgrade to a more modern operating system, like Windows 7 or Windows 8.1.
