not true, alot of these files are hosted on rapidshare.de (because its soo easy for them to throw the files up there)

[Code Monkey]

I said many, not all.

Now you have posted another link for them to delete.

[mrahul]

so what action is bound to be taken ? Legal or just a warning ?

[Code Monkey]

There is bound to be no action since not many here likely have the money to do anything and jelsoft will only deal with it's own interest, vBulletin itself.

Unfortunately, I too don't see how the principle of pursuing justifies the monetary means. Contacting the ISP and/or organizations similar to the SIIA is the better option.

is one of them, I reported them, but they're in russia like you said so nothing can be done about them

if the country has no copyright laws or only reconizes ACTUAL copyrights like jelsoft has. there is nothing you can do about them. There is also nothing that can be done if they are being dispersed via torrent. The legality in most countries differ. but if they don;t reconize non registered copyrights or don't have those kind of laws then the authorities AND the hosts will just laugh.

Sad I know I had a buncha things ripped i did for ipb, but all you can do is grind your teeth and move on.
