Windows Vista, the latest version of the operating system designed by Microsoft, is continuously assaulted by numerous attempts to crack the application. Although most of the malicious attempts were blocked by the software giant Microsoft, it seems like the cracks and other ways to activate the operating system are promoted on the Internet. Google China, a regional version of the well-known search engine, has the ability to provide suggestions and show the number of a certain search query. Although the suggestions feature is meant to help clients use more relevant keywords, the function provides some interesting alternatives.

For example, try to search for "Windows Vista" or just "Vista" and you'll be able to see the number of similar searches: 2.550.000. Although the user was looking for more information about Vista, the search engine encourages him to search for a Vista crack. Moreover, the Chinese Google provides numerous related search suggestions, offering more ways to activate the operating system. As you can see in the picture attached to the article, Google China returns numerous techniques to crack Vista as well as downloadable utilities used with the same goal.

This is not the first time when Google China causes problems because its suggestions. Recently, it was reported that the suggestions feature provided some interesting related search for some of the most common search queries in the entire world: "Britney Spears" and "Paris Hilton". As Google Blogoscoped reported, Google China returns multiple adult searches such as "Britney Spears naked" or "Britney Spears nude". OK, maybe you think that Google China filters the content and even if you click on "Britney Spears nude", you're not gonna be able to see adult content. You're wrong because I tested this and I was really amazed that the most popular search engine on the Internet provides instant access to adult content.
