i know that it is wrong to crack programs but i think like the person said it depends on what the person wants to do with it ! as i see it these oaks who want to charge like $1000 for some program especially when it does not warrant this price deserve to have have their stuff cracked. I personally think that they should try to make it afforable for private users of the software and if they want put it up for the commercial users. But i won't pay money like that for something i am going to use a few time a year where as companys who will be making money off of it and be using it everyday of the year they can justify chargining these big prices but not to private users of the software.

know that it is wrong to crack programs but i think like the person said it depends on what the person wants to do wBut when guys crack it and start selling it to everyone i think that is very wrong and those guys should be prosacuted to the max. That is just wrong getting a program cracking it and then selling it that is not right !!! cbut guys who just do that because they know they will only use it a few times a year it is not right but there is no real harm !!

I would buy stuff original if it was not priced so outragously when they want you to pay $500 dollars for a program or something stupid like that evenb if i jad the money i still would not pay but if they made their prices affordable i would diffinately buy it

Hi,
i agree with all of you who say that there is no problem if students get pirated copies of all these expensive softwares like photoshop, dreamweaver, flash, norton etc. And i read someone has written that the companies know that the students get pirated copies of their softwares and they have officially announced that they have no problem. When the company has no probkem why do some people have problem with that. And also someone said that it represents your character and you can even betray your friends and family if you get pirated copies of all the softwares. But i have a different view. Just because some students dont have so much money to spend on all these expensive softwares they get the pirated versions and after all they are gonna be our future software programmers, graphics designers and other computer programmers. They need all these softwares to learn them, and master them. They are infact our Future. And they ofcourse dont earn so much.. So i think if the students get pirated copies of these softwares there is nothing wrong in it.
And it doesnt reflect ones character at all

So, I wonder how these students will feel in a few years, when their programmes are being cracked, and passed around illegally?

Not that I have a problem with cracking software, I have used some myself. At the moment I have AVG pro, which is a cracked version. The stupid thing is, when the updater starts, I get a message saying the copy I have may be illegal, tells me how to get the pro version legally...............and then continues to update.

But, as has already been said, these cracking sites are full of all kind of nasties, so BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID.

DaRealChrono, please be carefull next time, this topic of yours is not for a Freebies forum wich was where post it.

Now, this is a very polemic subject, interesting but it will raise many answers, many ideas.

I don't know if you cracked or applyed a crack in a program or even an ilegal serial or anyother code to break the program/script security, and by that, removing it's limitations, so i'm going to beleave you've never done that.

I'm going to tell you the trueth, i cracked some programs, Photoshop and Norton antivirus was among the first programs wich i applyed a crack, and i had many reasons to do so:

- Photoshop is too expensive (1.000+ euros)
- Norton programs are also too expensive

- Still, i need the best programs
(I'm a webdesigner, informatics technician and shh technician so i
need the best web design / design programs plus i also need to be
protected when i open files from the internet and others)

I could buy them, but i'm not that rich to pay so much money for a program that i know how to crack the limitations.

I may have cracked some programs, i might crack programs in the future, but i tell you now, i will never do the same to my friends, i have principles, do you think if i crack a program or whatever it means that i'll steal my friends, no my "friend", i will not, i have principles and rules wich guide me.

One think is to crack a program in the virtual world, another is to steal a friend or an unkown person in the real world, both are very different worlds, you just can't compare them like that, it's absurd.


Now, please, answer me this questions:

- Have you ever toke copies of books in school?
- Have you ever downloaded mp3 (music) from the internet?
- Do you use p2p programs? What do you download!?
- Have you have steal a chocolate in a market or grosserys store?

The first one i'm almost sure you did it and perhaps you are still doing, almost everybody in the world makes copies of books, but what they don't know is that is illegal, why, because almost all people don't have permission to take those copies of the copyrighted books or whatever information, they don't have the respect of asking for those rights, for that licence.

Concerning the other questions, also i'm almost sure you did it, i don't know you, but statistics don't lie, perhaps you are an exception, if you say so i'll beleave you, but the point is that everyone does illegal actions everyday, all time, for any reason, now, does it mean that if you take copies of books then you also steal friends or take copies of your friends work?

I could talk forever here explaining you why not one person (with a few exceptions) is an example to say something about cracking programs, think about this.


If you say so, i'll do an effort to beleave you but, it is very very hard to beleave you did not make copies of books or anyother copyrighted material such as books and other works that normally help students and workers achieve better school marks or courses marks as well as in a profession.

It's very hard to beleave you did not make copies, unless you are rich or you did not go to school.

Here in europe, things are very expensive, and in schools as well as in all places, people makes copies of copyrighted material all the time and that's also illegal, cracking programs is also illegal but most people crack programs because they need them, it's not for playing around with them.

I could tell tons of other examples that most people do, and most of them do not even know that they are comicting an ilegall action.

You could say lots of things, i can beleave you, but it takes a hard effort for me to beleave it because i didn't burn yesterday or 2 seconds ago, i have a lot of experience in the real world, with people, and one thing reality tought me is that no one is an example to critisize other, no one is an example in all things like morally, professionaly and so on, to say that cracking programs is bad, i know it, but let's not forget the other things too like the example of copies of books in school/courses/work.



i also want to learn about this can any 1 please tell me how to crack any soft.

This is very interesting discussion, and have many question in answers of people.

In my Opinion:

As a programmer, i will hate people who are making cracks....................but as a student, who have not such big amount of money to buy/purchase liscence of expansive softwares, than i'll use these cracks.

Cracking of those softwares which are related to your commercial use is not a good thing, because you are making money from these softwares, if you are a student or a begginer, than you may use Cracks/Serial, But if you are a professional and doing professional jobs, than this is your professional honesty to buy true liscence from maker.

I hate people who download programs and SELL them. That is the worst type of person I have ever seen. People are making money not by working hard, but by selling something that is not theirs, something they stole. I do like Adobe and Mayas way of thinking about not minding how students use pirate software, because when they do become professionals they will most likely be working with the software they been practicing for a long time, and they will end up buying it. I know I would, that is really fair, besides it increases the programs popularity.

I like cracking the software tools to find out whats up inside and trying to figureout the techniques used to protect the software. This greatly helps me in securing my programs and learn a lot of new techniqes for programming.
