Install Microsoft Security Essentials without Genuine Windows

Microsoft has recently launched Microsoft Security Essentials claiming that that provides real-time protection against computer viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. Though the program is free to download and install from Microsoft site, your windows copy must pass through genuine Windows validation process. If your software is not passed through the validation, you may get through with simple technique as described here. I am not sure if it works to all computers but it worked in few tested ones.

1. Download the program from Microsoft site.

2. Double click the downloaded file

3. The program will run to install and when it ask for genuine validation, click OK, Click NEXT...

3. When the validation process starts or just before clicking validation, disconnect or unplug the internet connection.

4. Validation passes, you can continue and complete the installation.

5. Connect to internet and update the program to recent database.
