well thanks for all your help folks i've solved the problem !!! (kinda) since my bro in law lost the cd...or "misplaced" it..I "convinced" him to buy me another copy...!!i just ordered it (again) and I should have it soon..and this time...NO ONE GETS IT (HA HA)..and my bro in law had it not what yo think (to copy) rather I was visiting and left it there by mistake..he in turn thought it was something else.and blah blah blah..being that i'm in law enforcement, i do not prescribe do illegal activities of any sort...well i speed occassionally : )
