What are you going to if suddenly your Windows XP going black with no icons visible?

If you are experiencing this after Wednesday, 27th of August 2008, chances are Microsoft have something to do with it. A local newspaper source in Malaysia have reported that starting Wednesday, user of pirated copies of Microsoft Windows XP Professional that are connected to the internet will find their computer displays going black with no icons on the desktop.

You can reset the display properties to normal, but the Windows XP professional display going black will occur every 60 minutes of usage. This will repeteadly happen unless the user of the pirated version of Windows XP Professional register a valid license with Microsoft.

This is indeed quite a harsh move by Microsoft Corp for the WGA campaign. We will just have to wait and see what will happen after this.
