Well isn’t this a coincidence, right after I wrote an article yesterday on the issue of piracy and Windows 7, Microsoft have gone ahead and announced an update to combat pirated copies of Windows 7.

The Windows 7 activation technologies update for Windows 7 will close off more than 70 “activation hacks”.
