Well, I am not pirating Amiga software, and never tried...though I don't
really see how
putting my name on a list is going to help the problem...if you are trying
to stop piracy
why don't you close alot of the Warez sites on the internet, pirates don't
buy software (
though I buy my software for the Amiga and I pirate/buy some software for
the PC) but
without a supply most pirates would be buggered!
