No, because once Jelsoft finds out (and they will), you AND your friend will have that license pulled and be in legal trouble.

If you are running an illegal copy of vBulletin, why does it stink because you have to remove it? Try telling that to Macomedia or Microsoft and see what they tell you.

It's better than being charged with a felony...

Close the site down and delete the PHP files until you've got your own copy of vB.

Although they may want the files deleted, your database can stay intact until you pay, then you get your own copy of the files to run that database with.

Your "friend" should be told not to share licences for vB, but as long as you shut down, he should be able to keep running. As long as he adds the copyright text. :devious:

Why did someone message me and tell me i must remove everything vbulletin from my harddrive, at 5:27 AM?
And Yes, i plan to buy a full unlimited-time license once I have the necessary money. You can consider the vbulletin files gone. I don't want to have to mess with this law stuff and get screwed for it. I prefer to be innocent without all of these criminal charges against me....

As long as you 'do the right thing' and remove vBulletin from your site until you obtain a license you will be fine.
