Is this ilegal? by Jhrono on 04-03-2005 at 04:30 PM

Between one of my large number spamming emails i saw one that was advertising this site
(the url sounds strange but if i try to go to downloadoem.eeladd.com/ it says i have no premission bla bla bla)
...
Now are those products legal, is that a scam or are they ilegal?Thanks...

I wouldn't trust them. Go to a proper retail store and buy them. Or go through their official websites.

indeed. The prices depicted on that site are to good to be true (although electronic OEM versions are of course cheaper then retail boxed products)...

well they can't trace your ip, so they can't tell who’s downloading the products. therefore u can't be prosecuted of the crime, hence its basically legal

(hope thats the rite irrc, otherwise gonna look like an idiot :P)

1) they can trace your IP if it would come to that
2) that doesn't make it legal!!!!

(oh oh, I will strangle a homeless total stranger, nobody will find out, so it is legal... yeah right :dodgy:)

I odnt think so.. you have to pay to download you are actually buying the software.. nice design BTW. (y)

EDIT: What i find strange is that actually in most products you save 400+ dollars.. hum.. ^o)
