Devs Get Early Taste of Windows 7 Beta Via File-Sharing Leak

Windows 7's official beta release will come early next year, but its unofficial release looks like it's already happened via a leak. A Windows 7 beta is listed on BitTorrent tracking sites like The Pirate Bay. Users who might be tempted to check out the beta should keep in mind, though, that there may be some malicious software packages out there masquerading as the OS beta.
