    No, because I am careful and I only trust official sources. A noob like you simply don't get what I am trying to convey.

    Generally, you are correct when you say to only use official sources.

    In this case, when you change 32 bytes and arrive at an "official" image, it's safe to say the first version is "official", too.

    Edit: Of course, to verify this - because you shouldn't rely on random strangers in the forum - you'd have to get both versions and compare them. If you do this, you can use the MSDN version right away and don't bother with WZOR. So in the end, it boils down to trusting random strangers on the Internet or get the MSDN version.

    I always feel like
    Somebody's watchin' me
    And I have no privacy
    Oh, I always feel like
    Somebody's watching me
    Tell me is it just a dream

    When I come home at night
    I bolt the door real tight
    People call me on the phone, I'm trying to avoid
    But can the people on TV see me or am I just paranoid

    I don't know anymore
    Are the neighbors watching me
    Well is the mailman watching me
    And I don't feel safe anymore, oh what a mess
    I wonder who's watching me now--- (BOO!)........:eek: :D

    Sounds to me like you did not get the official WZT leak or you installed some virus on it along the way. The leak was freaking everywhere
    and you have to make sure you're getting the correct one.

    I've been using WZT's leak to paypal, internet bank... credit card payments. My emails haven't been hi-jacked or anything either.

    The first thing I did after installing windows 8 was to install kaspersky IS techncal preview 2013 AV as windows defender is unreliable.

    I have been using the WZT version for over 10 days and everything works fine. I got a few freezes while installing too many programs at once and doing backups for some odd reason. The MSDN version is clean cut and freeze free.

    I would definitely recommend the MSDN version with the official hash of course.

    :busted_blue: OH!! Too Scary!! :busted_blue:
    I also installed WZor leaked version and you know what, I lost my job the same day :bicycle:, my electricity bill suddenly increased :negative:, my house gas meter bursted the same day, my watch suddenly started to act weird and showed me 01-01-0001 as date :eek:, my laptop wallpaper changed to a devil face and I am unable to change wallpaper.....o_O I am too scary !! Please don't install leaked WZor ISO image. If you have installed MICROSOFT.WINDOWS.8.ENTERPRISE.RTM.X86.VOLUME.ENGL ISH.DVD-WZT, through away your laptop at least 200 KM away from your house. Buy a new one, download MSDN leaked image and come again to this thread and report your safety here. I am too worried about all of you.....:p

    People who installed the right drivers don't have freezing. It has nothing to do with the leak vs the mdsn iso.

    Altering the 32 bytes in the leaked image and checking if the SHA1 matches MSDN's is sufficient: creating a SHA1 collision for a file this large while creating a still working image is effectively impossible.

    Ugh. Anyone claiming the WZT release isn't the same as the MS release: Look into what the difference actually is and stop embarassing yourself for believing this nonsense.

    There is no practical difference.
    I do have to wonder how this thread got approved in the first place. :rolleyes:

    To have all pseudo doubts clarified in one thread, so they cannot spread everywhere. ;)
    You know, others know and we know that there is no relevant difference. :biggrin:

    LMAO!!!! This stuff about the leaked version is too comical. Nice to have a few laughs over this total BS about the leaked version. Generalsu seems very paranoid.

    In PcBeta(and other Chinese forums), those people who uninstall their WZOR OS and install the MSDN's are called neat freaks. :laie:
