[WarpCast] Help Stamp Out Software Piracy! - 8/02/99 |
Coming August 1999 -- Inet.Mail Pro 1.5 Virtual domains on a single ip address, increased performance, and more from the best mail server for OS/2. http://www.hethmon.com -- sales@hethmon.com ****************************** WarpCast ****************************** Source: Timothy F. Sipples (tsipple@us.ibm.com) Moderator: Dirk Terrell (admin@os2ss.com) ********************************************************************** The fact that I even have to write to you disturbs me, since I take it for granted that the overwhelming majority of IBM's customers are honest, making every effort to purchase software legally. That said, some of IBM's commercial software is being distributed illegally on the Internet. Recent examples include HPFS386 (which can be legally used only if you have a license for LAN Server Advanced, Warp Server Advanced or SMP Version 4, or the Warp Server for e-business HPFS386 Option Pak), OS/2 Warp Version 4, Stardock's Object Desktop for OS/2 Warp, and other software titles. This illegal distribution MUST BE STOPPED, and you can help. Please report any instances of software piracy by visiting the Internet web site http://www.spa.org/piracy. Your report will be treated confidentially. You can report cases of Internet-based piracy ("online") or other forms of piracy ("offline"). Piracy hurts both consumers and software developers. IBM and other software publishers depend on regular revenues to fund exciting new technologies, including new Java(TM) software. Denied revenues, software publishers cannot fund these needed innovations, nor can they provide adequate support to law-abiding customers. In short, software piracy is theft, plain and simple. Thank you for your help, and thanks for your continued patronage. - - - - - Timothy F.
