Windows 2003 Server Key Leaked 2 Weeks Before Release

C|Net reports:

A key code for installing Microsoft's Windows Server 2003 has leaked onto the Internet, a loss that could lead to widespread piracy of the software.

A Microsoft representative confirmed the leak late Monday and said Microsoft was investigating the matter. The leak comes more than two weeks before the software's scheduled release on April 24.


The code apparently even works with 3 different versions of Windows 2003 Server.

But like the article said, in a routine update it could turn off the software using the pirated code.
