Description
The bootleg is a stripped down Windows XP SP3 ISO which styles the OS with a Windows Vista theme. It has one program and some updates bundled, along with some themes. It does an excellent job at making the OS smaller - the ISO size is 298 MB while the uncompressed installation size comes at 1.78 GB.
The bootleg was made using nLite.
