WGA problems down to user error
Technology gets beaten by human error everytime. A post on the MSDN blog has admitted that it was a mistake that caused a problem with Windows Genuine Advantage.
The posting pointed out that WGA defaults to validating rather than blocking in the event of a problem with the physical computers controlling it. The problem was that some programming code was uploaded to the live server when it shouldn't have been.
Still I'm impressed that Microsoft has admitted it made a mistake, it's too easy to blame these things on a technical problem.
