Re: publisher problems
 

first: you're talking about copyrighted material, in clear violation of the forum rulez

second: you took the risk of downloading an application off of a public p2p network

third: if you want a guarantee of success (at least with some sort of customer support) you should go out and buy it..

ok guess i asked for that

wow...unbelievable...my hat's off to you for admitting your error!;)

so just what exactly are these sites for ????? all the stuff is available in the shops such as the music etc or am i missing something ( apart from the obvious brain cells !!)

File sharing applications are to allow people to exchange files. Companies like Grockster were actively encouraging people to use their application to upload and download copyright material, and it got them into a lot of trouble. Limewire, Bearshare, and other applications, mindful of this, state quite clearly that their applications should not be used to transfer copyright material. Unnacountably there seem to be the odd few who ignore these clearly stated instructions. Tch Tch Tch. Others use p2p networks for exchanging files that are not covered by copyright, are not available in the shops, and of no interest to anyone but themselves. amazing but true:):)

And personally, If I wanted a programme of any sort, I would obtain it from a 100% trusted sourse, and a total stranger on a p2p network does not, somehow, fil the bill:)

ok lesson learnt i am off to buy publisher now
