There are always 'ways' to do such a thing, but promoting illegal software is not the purpose of this site. Therefore i decline to comment any further, sorry.

Oh k. No worries. Is it illegal. Doesn't Windows provide anything for people that uses fake Windows. I didn't know that it was meant to be illegal. Sorry about that.

There's no way to avoid the Windows Genuine complement, at least not yet. Anyway remember that automatic updates still download critical updates.

There was a way to bypass the Genuine Advantage Component (and like William says there are probably many more), however Microsoft have now patched it up so that you will not be able to bypass it. And no I don't believe that Microsoft gives anything to non genuine Windows users.
