Windows 8 RTM leaks keep on coming; this time it's from China that comes in two flavors, 32 and 64 bit but it appears that Microsoft has blocked new activation requests.

Apparently, some people managed to crack the activation sequence and to bypass the Microsoft KMS servers, making the platform usable for 180 days before it needs to check again against a valid server. Before that, Windows 8 would notify users by means of a popup that they should head online and activate their copy of the platform. 

Over the next few days you can expect the leaks to continue as more and more individuals get their hands on the final shipping code for several Microsoft products.

The Windows 8 RTM leak is not limited to English and Chinese. Two separate language pack ISOs have also been leaked.

9200.16384.WIN8_RTM.120725-1247_CLIENT_MULTI-HRM_CL1_X64FRE_MULTI_DV5.ISO.iso
9200.16384.WIN8_RTM.120725-1247_X64FRE_SERVER_MULTI-HRM_SL1_X64FRE_MULTI_DV5.iso

A WinUnleaked user has uploaded a screenshot of what is inside the ISOs.

Hehe... well, its weird how Microsofts OS always get leaked.. is there something that Microsoft leaks it willingly or is it when they send it to burn it on discs, its there where the leak happens? Because Microsoft seems to always fail to secure the OS from their hands to the end-user's package until the leak has begun.

Its Microsofts destiny. Make windows free as UBUNTU. Then there wont be any leaks

Chinese and Russians FTW.
