    Somethings wrong then. RemoveWAT should cause the Genuine Detection to fail. It should say "There was an error running the Genuine Check ....etc." and instructs you to try to re-install the genuine validation check.

    Try following my steps in my post above.
    Restore WAT with the version you ran a few days ago.
    Uninstall KB971033
    ReInstall KB971033
    Run the validation check and make sure it says you've valid (as you should not be hacked in this state.)
    Download the latest RemoveWAT 2.2.4. Download it again in case you don't have the latest.
    Run RemoveWAT 2.2.4.
    Now try to run the genine validation check. It should fail.

    At least in my case it fails for which I consider that a successful hack. There's a chance I'm not seeing the right result.

    Office 2010 is a free beta right now. Why do you have a non-genuine version? If you got it from a Torrent then maybe you have Malware. Go download it from Microsoft directly.

    not so sure though, it was pre activated since it's beta. But right now, it has 3 days left. So pretty sure, activation of it was already detected and fixed. That's my point. but I already tried to do some crack that was posted here earlier

    Yea it was confirmed that after installing the WAT update that this was killed and even will not install on a system with WAT already installed prior. Hazar will have to make a fix for that but I would bet that M$ will get around it again if they want to so IDK. I would go with bios mod or Daz's loader right now.

    It was somewhere in the WAT unnoficial update thread, I forget where exactly but someone reported it there and other people are saying that it has been having issues after they installed WAT plus "RemoveWAT" is in the list of 70 known activation exploits that WAT is supposed to deal with.

    I think there is no Problem with the previously released WAT(unofficial one),But it is with New One.
    Solor has updated it with the new ones..
    Hazar I hope you would make a fix

    Proof? You had to know that this was the first type of "solution" they would go after.

    So WAT? - you can't be validated so you can't download anything from them either?

    Yeah and theyre currently legit customers having thier os bricked by MS stupid idiotic, ill conceived WAT. Check out the MS activation forums. Some of the customers are furious and rightly so. One guy sounded like he was gunna beat the s**t out of them lol.

    When will MS ever learn they did the same stupid thing with xp and pissed off so many people.

    I've got 3PCs, all RemoveWAT installed.

    The Problem is now, RemoveWAT 2.2.4 doesn't get properly installed because of previous installs.

    One one PC I could remove it by installing 1.9, and removing it and then installing 2.2.4.

    On the both other ones none of the versions since 1.9 (2.0 and 2.1) do offer me to remove RemoveWAT.

    Is there any way I can remove the older versions on that PCs? I installed RemoveWAT over the top since 1.9 approx.

    Install removeWAT but don't download the WAT update until a fix is found if any. We are all waiting for a solution

    And also don't set your windows update to automatic.
