there is no "demo" version... you can try the demo here: http://www.vbulletin.com/admindemo.php

Nulled signify that a pirate have a illegal version of the script, unlicense it, delete everything that could identify the owner of it, deactivate the call-home that verify the version of your script, and even can be filled with some hacks you would not be happy to have on a real site...

so it is suggested to never use a Nulled version if you do not know exactly where you want to go with it... (usually in jail!)

interesting, if thats the case why won't vb just check all vb forums for call-back function* and if it doesnt respond, they can sue and make loads of money

i'm sure Jelsoft will never answer to such questions you know, they are not stupid at the point of telling everybody how they trace pirates... ;)

btw, there is more than 50 000 (legal) vBulletin forums around, do you think they have the time to track them out each morning when they wake up ?!

that sucks, if thats the case the wudnt the vb members be angry and pissed off at ppl like these. y doesnt vb team install some code function taht wud be detected if that "call function" was deleted.

Lots of these nulled versions also contain bad code so that the nullers can for example get into your site easily. They aren't good to use!

usually, the hacks released here are provided at the same place you can get the nulled version of the forum software, and that's one of the things that can piss the coders off, because they worked hard to release these, and seeing that any nobody can have them, that's bad.. lol

yeagh nulled versions are illegal and usualy shared amongs users on warez sites, which is breaking like 80 violations lol. i had a situation where i bought a liscens from a friend online and he had a pirated version.. vb left me a nice msg telling me to get rid of it.

You could. Lpspider is right about how it does happen, but not very frquently. Every once in a while the MPAA or RIIA or whatever organization will try to set an example and will take out a lot of their rage on your piratee.
