However, Microsoft is going to fill in the empty spaces left by the discontinuing of WVA and OVA with Windows Comparison Guide (WCG) and the Office Comparison Guide (OCG). Additionally there is also the Windows Genuine Advantage and Office Genuine Advantage that will survive the anti-piracy cancelled services.

Sounds like you're confusing WGA with WGA Notification.

WGA is the ActiveX control that gets installed the first time you go to Windows Update or try and download just about anything from MS.

WGA Notification is that annoying POS that sits is the systray and pops up telling you you are using a pirated copy Windows (if it believes so).
