    Registry hack to download Vista SP2 beta

    Recently, I had mentioned that Windows Vista SP2 was released to selected testers. As usual, the trigger happy geeks who cant wait to get their hands on it have developed a workaround to turn your PC into a target for Windows Vista Build 6002.16489 (lh_sp2beta.080924-1740). All the user has to do is  run a batch file (.bat)  with administrator rights.

    Of course, due to probable violation of Microsoft’s EULA I shall not  post the hack out here directly. But you can check MyDigitalLife for  the download link and source code of the hack as well as more info about Vista SP2.
