Microsoft is going one step ahead to counter counterfeit/pirated software’s of its global software’s in spreading out to public. It has already been heard that they have tied up with local authorities to track illegal copies being distributed worldwide and to penalize such persons/firms.

Going a step further now Microsoft has come with a new idea that is to engage its users to report any pirated copy and in return users will get a genuine copy of Windows 7 for free.

If users have purchased a copy and found it showing pirated copy they can use Microsoft dedicated website Repotandwin  and inform Microsoft with details like where you have purchased the software and some of your personal details which they promise will only be used for contact purposes (no privacy issues). Once you it’s confirmed you will be getting a free and genuine copy of the software.
