Read this interesting article this morning. Seems the CC is not as secure from pirating as Adobe hoped.

Where there is demand, there is a pirate waiting.

Interesting. I thought the Pirate Bay was shut down.

The author of the article said at the end that Adobe now has a 99 day grace period for people who will be away from Internet access. I'm sure it will take them a while to get the kinks ironed out, but I wonder how they will counteract the piracy.

Pirate Bay will never be shut down until the Internet is switched off

UK ISPs have now banned it along with several other sites - workarounds up and running within an hour!

Amazing! I'd be afraid to download from a site like that for fear of prosecution and viruses. I've heard of some hefty fines levied on individuals. Does Pirate Bay give tech support? :D

LOL :-D

I have used these types of sites on and off for more than 15 years and only once got a virus due to my own stupidity. Once you have had to tear down your whole machine and rebuild it, together with losing a big chunk of data, more care is taken.....

They are nice to use on a trial basis though - download, try the software, then buy it if it is any good
