Bypass and Crack Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) WGA Validation

Posted on | October 20, 2006 | 11 Comments

I guess some of you guys are having problems installing Internet Explorer 7 because of the WGA. Here’s a little guide on how to bypass the WGA validation check.

  1. Download Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.
  2. Uninstall any existing previous version of IE7, including IE 7 RC1 or Beta version. To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 RC1, go to Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs, and remove Windows Internet Explorer 7. If you unable to see the listing of Windows Internet Explorer 7, run the following command to uninstall from Run of Start menu:%windir%\ie7\spuninst\spuninst.exe

    To uninstall Internet Exxplorer 7 Beta 3, Beta 2, Beta 2 Preview, or Beta 1, go to Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs and remove Internet Explorer 7 Beta 3, Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2, or Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview. If you unable to see the listing of any version of Internet Explorer 7 in Add or Remove Programs window, select the Show Updates check box at the top of the Add or Remove Programs window, then search for Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview or Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1 under the section of Windows XP – Software Updates, and then remove the beta browser by clicking Change/Remove. If you still having problem to uninstall previous version of IE 7, visit IE7 release notes for more specific instructions and guides.Download the crack for IE7 installer which contains IECustom.dll and Normaliz.dll. It’s the same patched version of IECustom.dll which is used to install IE7 RC1, and still can be used to install IE7 Gold edition to bypass any WGA validation

  3. Extract the zip file with cracks.
  4. Extract the setup file of IE7 by using WinRAR extraction tool.
  5. Copy the patched iecustom.dll to the Update folder of the extracted IE7 setup file. Overwrite any existing file.
  6. Run update.exe from the Update folder to start the IE7 installation setup. (Do not run iesetup.exe).
  7. At the end of the successful IE7 installation process, you will be asked to restart Windows, DO NOT RESTART Windows now! Click on the box Do not restart now and then select the Finish button.
  8. Run the update XmlLiteSetup.exe (Hotfix for Windows XP KB915865) to install or actualize the file xmllite.dll, otherwise there may be problems with menubars such as some items are missing or incomplete, or tabs is not working or not appearing.
  9. Run the update NlsDl.exe (Microsoft National Language Support Downlevel APIs).
  10. Run the update IdnDl.exe (Microsoft Internationalized Domain Names Mitigation APIs). This update will also install the normaliz.dll which is absolutely needed for Windows system restart, thus eliminating the need to manually copy the normaliz.dll (so you can ignore normaliz.dll contained in the crack zip file above).
  11. Restart the Windows.
  12. Enjoy Internet Explorer 7.

Note: As the iecustom.dll is from the RC1 release version, you may notice the different version number of IE 7 from the final version of 7.0.5730.11 during installation. However, the Internet Explorer 7 will be of valid ver 7.0.5730.11 once installed and viewed from About.

    There is one problem happened after the cracked installation. The whole system font blurred and lacks the previous quality.
    What will be the cause???

    Otherwise the IE7 is working good.

    Skott,

    Are you referring to the IECustom.dll? I’ll try to upload it again.

    Kito,
    I noticed it too. I guess Microsoft made changes on how it renders fonts. Not sure though…

    Hi Joe!

    As far as I know, there’s no possible way to install IE 7 on a Windows XP system with SP 1. IE 7 requires you to have atleast service pack 2.
