Warez

[ShiningIce]

Any people here use warez files without any ethical qualms?

Why, Ice, are they illegal? And what are warez files, anyways? 😕

"Warez" are pirated software. It's usually software used in business or for content creation (art, websites, ect.).

I was hoping someone would know if Kazaa would be good for those

I've seen some on WinMX when searching for other things, but I've never looked on Kazaa... Although there are probably just as many warez-ed programs on Kazaa.

If you do decide to download any, be careful. Sometimes some prankster or hacker will slip malicious code or a virus into a warez file, and then distribute it...

Argh all I want is Alien Vs. Predator 2 ud think there was some file sharing program that would let me snatch it right up 🙁 😡

You'll probably be able to find it out KaZaA. However, *I* personally think you should try and buy it. The more illegitimate things P2P filesharing is used for the more ammunition they have to try and shut it down. Plus programmers need to eat too ya know 🙂

You can always try the "underground" channels on Mirc, but be aware that most of the people who run those channels are little pricks on a "pint sized power trip".

That game came out about a year ago, you should be able to get it pretty cheap. Also, if you use a pirated copy, you can't play online with it.
