for those of you who are plagued by this windows validation thing (cus it mandatory now) all you hav to do is
-open internet explorer (yes, u use dis)
-tools>manage add-ons
-under show you select "add-ons that have been used by internet explorer"
-disable windows genuine advantage active x control
oh yeh you have to install it and den disable it (ironically)
now you should no longer have to validate...theoretcially
