    Why should he or his friend be forced to leak?! Why should he ruin a friendship only for a build?!

    This continuous beg for a leak needs to be stopped, it won't happen until Wzor or others decide to do it.

    People do not understand the consequences of leaking a build. It can cause major problems for the source and result in termination of microsoft providing them with the pre release builds in future. For now, it's safer for them to leak images on the sly rather than leaking an entire build which Microsoft then has access to. I respect this reason, but yes. We're all frustrated with all the lies and tricks which has made us all hungry for a Win8 leak. Of course, it won't happen anytime soon. This wZor guy promised a weekend leak and hasn't been heared of since. If people wouldn't have confirmed a leak in the first place, we would be less annoyed than what we are now.

    People need to trust Wzor a lot less. He has been wrong a lot of times.

    Surely it's not infallible, but it has been proven to be a good source, after all. It should be said also that we aren't plenty of alternative sources.

    Also legal consequences. I remember an old story from the Longhorn days, when a person was sued by Microsoft because of a leak (it was a 3xxx range build, I don't remember exactly, maybe someone who knows better this story could be more precise).

    I would really like a leak. It's just i'd feel really bad if the source got into trouble. I'd rather have a bunch of images of the next upcoming builds rather than one being leaked resulting in no more builds being distributed to that person.

    I don't want a leak no more x_x;

    anybody got the public beta date?

    his friend will never will get the information that he is the source. isos are not traceable and if he will give it to wzor or a third person who leak the person can get the iso from a different source.

    so i dont see any reason not to upload the iso and give the url to a different person who can do this.

    why any group like wzor or something else told about a leak and do nothing. yes it is a milestone but why writing stuff about it and dont be still shut up?

    they produce a hype and what they do? stupid installation pics are shown.

    iso can be leaked but not done so i dont see any reason to believe in any writing!

    and can you tell me what poor friendship you have got that will be broken if you leak a iso file? get real friends :p

    off: Vista SP3? (At least, as I know) Microsoft has stopped the development of Vista SP3.

    Yes yes, there is no leak. It was fake.

    So I do not understand 2 things.
    First, why everywhere in the screenshots to close the build number? jpeg traced??
    Second, as I understood some of the latest builds can be traced less than the previous ones. Right? Then you can share folders from the image into several parts, for example, "xp vista interface Part 1" and so on, including files from winxp and in the same folder, for example, "upgrade1" and so on, to put part of the image win8, make a magnet link in the each part and give it to someone through a PM link. This person collects all the image, calls it "win7 RTM", a topic in a thread "windows 7" type "windows 7 updated 03/2011" or "Longhorn 5021". In the subject there was talk about Longhorn, Vista and 7, all messages about 8 out of that and other topics hint at the hand removed. About communicating with other forums, write that this fake and have no idea what was going on. A couple of hours or an hour free to delete and forget about it. Next business equipment. Many flaws, I know, but still.

    The word is that it will be released in September, so maybe the leak of the beta will be in August

    btw, i think that these builds now are somehow traceable, otherwise there would already be a leak.

    The way the hash is generated is pretty clever, but it has NOTHING to do with tracking people. I should make a post on my site explaining exactly how it works with screenshots etc... then maybe people will wake up and realize what's up :p

    Please do so :)


    Paul Thurrott told me the same:
    So he also said it traces back to MS not the User.

    Stupid Sinofsky... But this can also be good. When the developement of different parts is more independend, it might result in the ability to easier remove components like with nlite or vlite.

    He's writing about it in code on his website, even he says that. He's also starting a book, he said that on his site too. I'm just saying ;)
