whywhywhywhywhywhywhywhy you installed feature that you dont wanna see on your PC?

"The Windows Genuine Advantage Notification tool notifies you if your copy of Windows is not genuine. If your system is found to be a non-genuine, the tool will help you obtain a licensed copy of Windows."

You should be happy , now you know that your copy of Windows is not genuine.

P.S. If somebody patch this thing before SP3 arrive , I I i dont know.
WGA Tray by 420 on 2006-04-27 13:15:08
To get rid of WGA tray, you need to unlock wgalogon.dll in your windowssystem32 folder using unlocker.
Then delete windowssystem32wgalogon.dll and wgatray.exe.
Also, delete the same files from windowssystem32dllcache.
Make sure the files are gone and don't return.
When you delete wgalogon.dll, you won't be able to reboot normally, because the file is being used by the winlogon.exe process so you just have to use your reset button.
If you know what you're doing, you can find the last few traces of it in the registry, but be sure not to delete your winlogon data or else you won't be able to log back into windows after you reboot.

Just add the last patch released,it will over-write the bull sh't wga,and you'll be back to normal....nuff said

And really,XP will be on the way out in a couple of years anyway,and they will stop careing.
