Run away from the argument if you want but it doesn't change the fact that I am right. There are plenty of warez copies floating around without "back holes" in them. Anyone can confirm that by downloading a warez copy and comparing it to a legit copy from the member's area with Beyond Compare.

You obviously don't spend much time around the scene (which isn't a bad thing). If you did you'd know that most real deal groups pride themselves on releasing good software. On that note most real deal groups wouldn't waste their time on "cracking" vBulletin anyway..there is really no challenge in it after all.

What you're getting are second hand warez copies (someone took a good release and placed a backhole in it) or something released by a shady group that isn't well known (because if they were they wouldn't risk their reputation on releasing crap).
