Activating Windows Vista through an attack Brute Force

It seems that the activation system Windows Vista has been violated. And the beauty is that the technique used is one of the oldest and well known: a brute force attack aimed at finding one or more valid keys to activate the operating system.
From a practical point of view, the operation of hacking is very simple: to download a simple program vbs that once launched will begin to attack the system and trying generating about 10000 activation key every 30 seconds.
I fear that this time Microsoft has just a big cat from peel: If this system works (perhaps with the ease with which we read in the forum keznews) generating keys valid for all intents and purposes, will require that the house of Redmond is a very cunning to stem the problem.
Probably it will be necessary to issue a patch qualcha able to act in terms of controlling the number of attempts to registration or something similar, but imagine if then between the various keys sound generated there are already assigned to licensing regularly bought or worse… still, to buy…

5. to comment miki49 follows: to find a valid key with a generator that 20,000 head keys every hour by a hypothesis that microsoft
   has used 200 mlioni of total generator must operate
   for at least 20.398303618.627005006 YEARS! rounded up in words 20.miliardi of billions of years.
