MemberI know that using pirated software is not legal, but how legal is it to ruin someone’s computer? I don’t think that should give them an “all access pass” to your PC.

Memberyaaa thats what… thats why I never prefer legal s.w…. b’cos if its bad then I am gonna lose my computer plus the money I used to buy that…. and I keep backing up my data on CD

MemberI’d use “legal” software over illegal anyday. The reason? Customer support. I want to have someone to talk to if something goes wrong. However, nowadays with the way customer service has gone down the toilet, I’m not so sure it even matters to me.

ParticipantFrom the News Source:
Quote:quote:Bug might even not be the correct word for it, it seems more that Ahead forgot to limit the feature to empty the destination folder for temporarily files. If this destination directory is set to the root of a disc (e.g C : ) and if the question: “Destination folder is not empty, do you wish to clear it” is answered with yes, all files will be deleted.I hardly think Nero has done this purposefully, but if you are using illegal software, and are dim enough to set your temp directory to your root folder, and clear it while ignoring the warning prompt, you probably have just gotten what was deserved. Legal users – update to Nero 6.0.0.11.

And what may I ask do you do with the software that has proven its worth? I certainly hope you would encourage the development of better future releases by purchasing the software. Sure there is alot of crappy software out there, but that is not a viable excuse for piracy. Try out a demo version before you buy. Don’t steal and please don’t encourage others to do so.

MemberAnyone know if any older versions than 6.0.0.9 have the “bug.” I have to be sure, hardrive has been cleaned way too many times.

Participantsomeguy03 – Don’t set your temporary folder to your root folder and you have nothing to worry about, no matter what version.
