RemoveWGA enables you to remove the Microsoft "Windows Genuine Advantage
Notifications" tool, which is calling home and connect to Microsoft
servers every time you boot. Once the WGA Notification tool has checked
your OS and has confirmed you had a legit copy, there is no decent point
or reason to check it again and again every boot.
Also, Windows Genuine Advantage Notifications is different than Windows
Genuine Advantage Validation. RemoveWGA only removes the notification
part, phoning home, and does not touch the Validation part. As the time
I'm writting this, the Validation part is mandatory for some not critical
downloads from Microsoft, but the Notification part is not mandatory at
all, and you are able to install all of the security updates without
installing this one. This may change in the future thought, I don't know
what are the Microsoft plans.
Editors Note: Avira detects a trojan in RemoveWGA. The file is clean.

Wrong. Microsoft changed that behavior. RemoveWGA is no longer needed.
