Description

The bootleg is a modified Windows XP SP3 ISO. It comes with many themes. There are plenty of programs on the CD which you have to install manually. There is a LEEME executable which just pops up a bunch of VBS message boxes:

MsgBox ("By Peruxxo Alias El Pejeman")
MsgBox ("Dudas, Problemas Con Virus, Errores Y Demas Malware de Xp Contactame: [email protected]")
