You are breaking the terms of the licence by doing this, and may also be breaking the law. When Microsoft discovers what you are doing they will most likely sue you for millions.

You can't use it at all after the expiry date: you need to purchase a licence from Microsoft in order to use it outside the free trial period.

Anything else would be illegal or malicious activity, and we do not condone, support, or assist in malicious activities in any way, form, or manner. This is a professional site for professional developers.

If you want to know how to do such things, you need to visit a hacking site: but be sure to disable all firewalls and antivirus products first or they won't trust you enough to tell you.
