I thought that China was supposed to be notorious for leaking and counterfeiting software ... but this time it seems, it's the Russians which are making the headlines.

"Site has posted screenshots of installation process and desktop. Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) must either be very frustrated with its Russian offices and OEM partners or very pleased with them, depending on whether or not it actually secretly wants test builds of its upcoming software to be leaked. Microsoft Russia leaked information on the availability of Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and screenshots of Internet Explorer 9's beta, before they were publicly available.

Now yet another major leak has been sourced to Russia -- new screenshots of a Windows  8 test build.  The info leaked on Winreview.ru, a site that in recent weeks leaked a test build of Office 15."
