Why THAT site?
I thought that the word "warez" denoted STOLEN software,
that has been "CRACKED" by "crackers", people who figure
out how to defeat passwords, crypto, etc, of packages
that allow download for trial periods, thus transforming
them into "permanent" programs -- ie STEALING it from
the writer/vendor.
(The list I'm on re warez is about protecting yourself
FROM these people).
