Well, if the police or whatever finds out, you might be breaking the law cuz buying pirated goods is buying stolen stuff, and you might go ta jail. (i think.)

If you are also providing the product keys and cd's, and are not re-using the software elsewhere this would be completely legal.\n\nBut if you plan on retaining ownership of the software for use on another computer, the software on the laptop would be considered pirated.

What you will end up buying is a burned copy of the software.  There is no way you're going to get an $800 program for $30 legally.  Don't buy into this.  If you want to get the software illegally, find a way to download it, don't support these crooks though.

I don't know about any of that software, but I suggest that you put the computer in plain sight for the rest of the family.  That will discourage them from using the computer inappropriately while you are at home, and will make it apparent when they use the computer.  You might set aside a room strictly for computer use, and maintain a presence there too.  Also, I think Internet Explorer has a content control system.  Check the Internet Options dialog for that feature.

I think they are asking you to volunteer to have your pc bugged so if you do it, even on accident, they can arrest you.\n\nDid you know that if a copyright holder believes you have violated his right, he can enter your home without a warrant to protect that right?  The record companies had done it, but cooled off for public outrage.  It's the only industry out to sue its own customers.\n\nvisit janisian.com, a well known recording artist, and see what she has to say about it.

Its not that a program can prevent you, its your ISP that can report your illegal activities. There are many many P2P (peer-ro-peer) networks that allow you to download pirated material, but it is usually your ISP that will report your activities to the company that owns the material you are pirated. But sometimes the company files lawsuits against organizations that host the material.

If someone is dumb enough to brag on TV or in a blog that they download pirated music, then their statements can be used against them in court.  It would also be enough for prosecutors to get a search warrant to search the person's home and computer to gather additional evidence for possibly prosecution.  It would be enough evidence for the recording industry to file a lawsuit and make the same demands to inspect the ocmputer for further evidence.

Sorry, love to help, but need more info.\n\nWho is misusing the company computers?  Your staff?  Your coworkers?  Is the company misusing their own computers? \n\nWhat way are the computers being "misused" - harassing people, identify theft, software piracy, etc.??

I would stop trying to use it altogether. You are more than likely only using it for stealing anyway, so now you are better off. Truly a shame it didn't fry your whole computer.\n\n\nLong Live Jambi

downloading copies of software from anywhere other than a publishers site is piracy.\nDownloading illegal software often ends up with viruses on your PC.\nSupport software devlopers and purchase their software.
