    i think with Vista, it will prevent priacy a little, but nowadays software is just so big and theres always someone that hacks, u just get old versions

    I doubt people are gonna broadcast that hey have used or use pirated products... however, I think if theyre willing to risk it then let them, they'll possably be caught anyway (ok so it isnt that likely, but it could be anyone so .. could be them! :p)

    :eek:

    I use some pirated software, not really afraid to admit it. It's a problem that can't be solved by just going after one person for using pirated software. I only have two programs right now that aren't really pirated, I have the serial codes from my friends that we share, but whatever.
