To steal a lot more code.

The leaked code was only a very small amount of the kernel. I doubt you'd be able to compile it on its own. And even if you did, it would probably do begger all for you.

Anyone know if it was a different build number to (1381.) ?

You might be able to compile individual files - but you know what NT is like when you mix files from different service pack levels :rolleyes:

True download the other 50 --> 60 Gbs and start compiling, if your interested so can get the source for IE 5 or 6 which you can compile.

Thanks joePC
