worst case?

if you install an illegal copy of vb with full knowledge that it's illegal you can go to prison.

To elaborate, in the United States it is a felony to use vB without a license, and yes, you can go to court, get convicted, and serve a prison term.

And I'm not kidding.

Do that, and the next time you come back here looking for hacks you will be reported, as we've got your IP address on record.

IP can tell your ISP and your isp knows your name in most cases and then it's easy to track your address

and it's really nice to do so.

You are either brave or stupid to come to an official Jelsoft site to ask us whether you can use an illegal copy of the program. We've got your email address, URL to your site, IP address.

I suggest if you do go ahead and use the illegal copy, do come back here and ask for a review. We will gladly give it.

Go and use a free one like phpbb or IB. Or save money. We have licensed users here younger than you.
