+M2Ys4U Subscriber¹ Posted October 25, 2007 Subscriber¹ Share Posted October 25, 2007 If I remember correctly, August's release was Full, therefore that's all you need. The tracker than I ran is now pointing at an open, public tracker so the old torrents should work, but no guarantees.

+M2Ys4U Subscriber¹ Posted October 26, 2007 Subscriber¹ Share Posted October 26, 2007 Fake in as much that it didn't come from the AutoPatcher team. There were a couple of underground groups releasing unofficial updates, but these should not be used unless you're willing to to trawl through each update, verifying the digital signatures, and examining the modules to make sure that they don't do anything malicious... which is a pain in the arse and the time you spend doing that could just be spent updating via Windows Update to be honest.

+M2Ys4U Subscriber¹ Posted October 29, 2007 Subscriber¹ Share Posted October 29, 2007 ok but what do u think about that patch? It was compiled by a group of people who wanted to keep the project going underground. I can't vouch for its integrity, and I don't have the time to go through inspecting digital signatures.

markwolfe Veteran Posted October 30, 2007 Veteran Share Posted October 30, 2007 why not make this statement on the main page, so people know before they waste their time signing up into the forums?just as retarded as microsofts themselves You mean like Page News item that was pinned for that week? Or like this pinned thread redirect from the very topmost item on the main Forum page? Or how the Neowin-sponsored Autopatcher site has this information? Anything like those methods, you think?

darthyoda6 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Even though Autopatcher was banned, I wish the page(s) that listed all the latest programs with links to the web pages were still available at least.

RedFlow Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Well this is another reason that I just don't understand Microsoft. I do understand their reasons though. I hear he is making another version that downloads the files straight off Microsoft's site so it would be genuine.

piko Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I could be completely wrong here but perhaps the real reason behind this is SP3 (for XP)? as in since SP3 is essentially just all the updates for XP from SP2 onwards and nothing new (correct me if I'm wrong) and they feel AP would undermind SP3 so they decided to stop AP?? but this is only what I think so take with a grain of salt.

Jack 0Neill Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 They were making a profit off the cds/dvds they sold, thus they were reselling Microsoft code and making a profit. I'm guessing if they hadn't made the CDs and SOLD them, they probably wouldn't have drawn ire (or, at least not yet). How is Microsoft not allowing an unlicensed 3rd party to resell their code "pulling crap"? If you resold Citrix hotfixes (for a profit, no less) on CD, would it not be OK if Citrix forced you to stop?
