| 244199 | 2004-06-13 22:57:00 | Last week, someone (a client) asked me to install a pirated copy of Windows XP for him but I turned him down. I would like to know and confirm, who is responsible in this case? The owner of the computer (and the pirated software) or the person who installs the software? Cheers |

| 244201 | 2004-06-13 23:18:00 | it can be a bit of a grey aera. if they didn't tell you it was pirated would you know it was ?? obviuosly if they start asking you to find keygens for them.......:( if you had installed it and he got caught you could have gone for a slide with him. requardless of the responsiblity its not a good look for a buisness to be seen installing pirate software. the catch is you proberly will loose some buisness to those micky repairers who repair a pc and install a few thousand $$$ worth of illegal software on it as well. i think you did the right thing. if they want to play with pirate stuff they can do it themselves. |
