              What Do Firefox, Netscape, and Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Have In Common?

            • Phhh... Not a da... Wait.. What?


              Windows Genuine Advantage plug-in installation

              Some downloads are made available only after users have validated their versions of Microsoft Windows. Firefox and Netscape Navigator browser users may install a helper program, the Windows Genuine Advantage plug-in, to enhance their download experience.

              Hold up... Am I reading this correctly? You mean I don't have to be running IE to validate my install of Windows anymore?

              Ok, who are you and what'd you do with Microsoft?!

              Hmmm... Well, even if you ARE Microsoft... It's not gonna last. I mean, come on, its not like you're suddenly going to wake up one day and find a Google, Microsoft and Sun join forces to set up R&D lab headline.

              Hah! Like that'll ever happen. ;)
