If you want to download from sources other than MS then pay your $9.95 and join the following as a VIP member:

They test everything on their servers for problems. A great site, all files are clean and a lot of great info.

I will agree, downloading anything from regular torrent sites is asking for trouble. I don't need troubles like that.

I am not advocating piracy in any shape or form, but I believe as do many others that MS leaks their programs to promote interest.

If you have Win 7 installed and working nicely and the limited activation runs out, you are probably going to buy it when it comes out and keep all your settings and programs. Did I mention, all the "leaked" versions are Windows 7 Ultimate which will list for $299.00 if Vista pricing is anything to go by.
Microsoft may be hated by a lot of people, but they sure know how to make money.

Let us know if a direct from MSFT download pops up.

I'm very leery of d/l-ing anything that may have passed through Chinese or Russian hands before it hits a torrent.  No offense, but one needs to be aware of where the majority of threats originate.

My MS rep had not even heard about it !!!
