Hey Jess.
I think everyone's cool now. Looks like it was just a good example of how some ill-chosen words can be completely misunderstood.
I've personally seen quite a few posts on various discussion groups where a person was blatantly seeking assistance in pirating software. To help someone with this would be as bad as opening the door for Winona Ryder as she leaves Sacks.
A little humour there. Very little.
