heh, you gave them your real adress?

i always thought if i registered, they would find out i got it illegally (speaking about all programs gotten illegally)

Yeah, I always thought so too. Maybe I&#39;m going to have to start using my real address. [/b][/quote]
Not all companies are as generous. make sure you don&#39;t register with those that have a particular serial number associated with the email address.

How did they get your address?

I guess when I installed the warez copy of 8.0 and when it asks you to register the product I put my address in the registration. [/b][/quote]
And you allowed them to send you mail from Jasc Software to the address you provided. It only took a checked boxed to accomplish that I am afraid. Nothing special or stupid on anyone&#39;s part (except maybe Jasc for not having a better registration/security process).

I use the same software as well and it may or may not suprise you to know that my (illegaly aquirred by definition) version is also registered and I receive a monthly newsletter and the whole nine yards. For as long as I can remember, Jasc has never had the "software key/activation" crap that plagues other decent applications. They pretty much just rely on ye ole&#39; "honor system".

Version 8.1.0 has been available for months now. You (being that you are registered) could have downloaded the upgrade directly from their site using PSP&#39;s update option without un-installing jackshit.



Yeah- it suprised me as well when I was able to register my copy and have it recognized as "legal". B)

Smartest thing I did was register my ZA pro got all the updates with a cracked version. Have heard they ask you to be a beta tester, too if you want.
