    Does anyone understand what WZOR just tweeted? None of it seems Windows related :weeping:

    I'm not sure but there's a download link to 5 million gmail users supposedly...
    If anyone from google is reading this, you might wanna get the authorities on that immediately.

    I will have no part in that, and I suggest that none of you do either unless you want to risk hassle by authorities.

    Five days to go on WZor's speculation on the Windows 9 Technical Preview. I hope we are getting the leak as forecasted on his twitter page.


    P.S: I have been able to find the origin of Alex Kibkalo. He is from Russia. Thank you for that point.

    From what some new articles mentioned, it seems to be Gmail data acquired by phishing (no data breaching), with most of the accounts being unusable. Should probably take that with a grain of salt though.

    2-step ftw :cool:

    Alex Kibkalo is Russian and he seemingly leaked parts of the activation server SDK for windows 8 and builds of post w7 branch.
    He passed the things to a French blogger who started here @MDL to post info about M$ OS development and who later had even an own forum. Many other sites copied and pasted his info.
    When Kibkalo has been arrested, the blogger vanished also.

    As mentioned already the dilemma is the NDA.
    M$ is the only ‘authority’ and hence the only one who has the right to publish info about their development.
    Strictly seen to post about info, about current development state is a violation of NDA, also when there are friends working with the new builds and saying a word about...
    The coolness to be able to post about 'win unleaked' info did not last a long time....

    Do you mean there is a discrepancy on the numbering or that's the one you received? The one among the others I received earlier in the August Update 2 is KB2975719 and It keeps coming back.

    It fixes something that the previous stack had an issue with.
    According to abbodi1406 you need at least a 2919355 (with update) image to use this.

    If we already installed them back in August should we just ignore those updates?

    I think they will fail to install if you have installed them before.
