    It has been touted in many forums, that a lot of people were getting "Invalid Copy" messages when trying to dl the latest SP2.

    Saw this interesting article.
    Apparently MS has decided to reverse it's decision and many people are now getting the ok to dl via the new WUv5 updater.

    They decided that it's better to have a greater majority of the estimated 30% or more of pirated versions to be fully patched, as it works out better in the long run.
