FakeUpdate.net

From Misc Data Digs

FakeUpdate.net is (as the name implies) a fake update website, made so that people can prank their friends.

ASCII Art[edit | edit source]

In the HTML files for /win8/, /win7/, /windows98i/, /win10/, /win10u/, and /wnc/ is a comment from the website's owner along with some ASCII art. The comment was made to combat the theft of the site's code.

Another variant of the comment is in /xp/, /vista/, /apple/, and /steam/. The only difference between the two versions appears to just be the year.
