when I first started with poser came across some warez sites and I found some of the stuff was freebies anyway, sure there maybe "kickbacks" or "ad money" to be made on those sites but I think they drop "stuff" on your drive you really don't want (keyloggers,trojans etc )

fact is IF no one took a d/l from them they would give up !!!!!!!!!! (anno all of us is ok but you know what I mean )

do feel for venders, but if Microsoft or autodesk cant stop them what chance has a "small" vender have ?
