Microsoft Fires Off 63 Suits Against Software Pirates

Microsoft has launched another international round of legal actions against organisations it believes are selling counterfeit versions of its software.
The 63 lawsuits include 16 in the US, 12 in Germany, 12 in France and seven in the UK, as well as proceedings in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Japan, Mexico and New Zealand.



In particular Microsoft is going after the sellers of a fictional product called 'Windows Blue Edition'. The product has been sold around the world, but is in fact just a bootleg version of Windows XP.

Consumers should be aware that the so-called 'Blue Edition' software is nothing more than low-quality counterfeit software burned onto a CD.
