Microsoft extends grip on Windows XP licensing

" SOFTWARE FIRM Microsoft is taking further steps to protect its intellectual property by cutting down on upgrades available for pirate copies of Windows XP.

The firm announced its plans in the USA yesterday, confirming our earlier story from last October.

Its "Genuine Advantage" scheme means that non legitimate version of XP won't get any upgrades apart from security fixes."
