Here’s a screencast video I made to demonstrate downloading the ie7 installer (the installer still does a WGA check but once you have the file, you can try and hack it.) I used firefox so I could pretend to be a browser running ie in windows to get past the first check. This is hard to see (I should have set my resolution higher.) By the way, I did not discover this. I heard it on a TWiT podcast and wanted to confirm this. So much for WGA checking.

Note: I should have increased my screen resolution. If you want to read what I did, follow the embedded youtube link.
