Windows Spiderman Vista V3 is a bootleg Windows XP SP2 edition, which was created by Maher Mostafa (also known as Mooma Max and Mr Format 80) and Mohamed Mostafa of Spiderman Net (which is headed by Manshyet Elgabal Elasafar). It released on October 6, 2007, and was added to the archive on August 9, 2022.

Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO which is themed after Spiderman, and also styles the OS with a Windows Vista theme (obviously). It has a few programs and has a new autorun with additional software, not much else other than that. It is unattended and preactivated.

The ISO was made using nLite and the autorun was made with AutoPlay Media Studio 6.0. The OOBE video was encoded on May 15, 2007 @ 07:54:51 UTC by Server_Spiderman. It is copyrighted March 13, 2007.
