The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP2 ISO, which styles the OS after the famous superhero Batman, and also with a Windows 7 theme. It comes with many programs and themes, including some Sysinternals utilities. It comes with a RunOnceEx based program installer borrowed from Windows XP Cyrix Premium Edition.
