Do you think giving serials are illegal, but why are they still distributed?

As you've learned, there are cretins out there who will exercise the common human desire to get something for nothing.  Hope you enjoyed the Trojan!\n\nTo be a bit more succinct, they do it because there's always some idiot out there who thinks he or she can get away with stealing someone elses work.  You got what you deserved!

The website itself is not illegal, but some of the downloads are illegal. Such as Copywritten Movies, Music, and Software. Just stay wary of what your downloading, and be smart. :-D

not right.  You know that already.\n\n:(  I know what you mean though.. You don't want to risk having your copy being lost or messed up... \n\nJust go out and get a second copy the legal way... buy it.  Then keep your copy safe and loan the other one out to your friends.

NO! lol at least not off me, try alt.virus alt.virri or any of the other ten thousand news sections. Its not illegal to transmit it but you will still have a hard time getting it. Mainly because its ancient and not worth the text file its written on.

To my knowledge it is not illegal but could be construed as a conflict of interest or witness coercion or tampering. If you have proof or reasonable suspicion,tell the lawyers involved. Peace.

That is illegal.  Take that Question to Lymwire or Kaza, it doesn't belong here..  Try Buying A Copy...  You get your own code (for free) with your purchase and the person who put his blood and sweat into creating it might actually get paid a few buck for your effort

They're not illegal, but they are a scam.\n\nBasically they make you sign up to buy a good or service from one of their sponsors, and get other people to do the same.  Those sponsors pay the company a portion of the money they get from you, and that is how you get the 'free' stuff.

If the software is not freeware, you must purchase a key for it after the expiration. We will not help you find illegal copies of sotware. It is illegal.

Because the programs themselves are not illegal in most areas, although the recent Grokster decision said that they may be if they actively encourage piracy.\n\nBut a program like Limewire or eMule never says "Hey, look! Free pirated mp3's here!". In fact it states NOT to download copyrighted files. Of course, most p2p files are illegally downloaded, but the programs themselves are still considered legal.\n\nIt's like a Xerox machine. You can illegally copy a book using it, but the machine itself is legal.

because you could sue them after if they sue it without permission so no one will ever see it.    you have to send it to a publishing house AFTER you get copyrighted etc....and then let them shop it around iof its any good..if not..it ends uyp with all hte otehr millions of wasted pieces of paper

I don't think they're legit. They get a real hard copy, make illegal copies and sell them for cheap by the masses.

The way the copy right law works is that when you record the shows as long as it is non-commercial and for personal consumption it is OK.  The moment that you put it in the public domain or try to make profit off of it, you are infringing the copy right of the show and you can be legally liable that way.  That is why they shut down Napster in the first place.

that would mean you are doing something illegal.\n\nyou buy the program if you like it.\n if you can't buy it, save the money to do so\notherwise, stealing it is illegal.

I don't see where it is a bit illegal for you to make the image as long as you aren't redistributing or reselling copies of the game for profit and gain. That is the copywrite act you hear everyone screaming about. As long as you only copy it for yourself to load up with a virtual drive or something like that to keep the game cd in good condition nobody would ever know unless you tell them.
