AFAIK, you can still get all the security updates without the WGA. Can't you just uninstall WGA?
The Dolphin's right. You can get all the updates elsewhere anyway.

there's a crack out that you just add a line of text in the nav bar to disable WGA. but i won't discuss it here or post links due to RFD rules.
