    Hi all, I just received the following message from IE "Internet Explorer detected pirate software on your manchine and has would like to forward this information to the BSA for processing and possible prosecution. You can confirm or cancel this process." Has anyone seen this before? I don't believe I have any pirated software since this is a company laptop and the restrict what applications we can install. Just curious, since the dialog box states that they would like to forward this info to the BSA for processing. How do they do this? EZ

        Your busted! The BSA will charge you 150,000 dollars plus send you to prison for violating copyright law. Just ask David Wulf.;)

                                  I never thought it would truly catch people out! You're the second guy this week who fell for it.

                                        I agree with what David said, changing it would be a stupid idea. The whole point is to catch people out.

                                          David, David and David, I'm not going to change it. It took two weeks to get this far! And stop...... Oh f*** it. I was going to copy Roger, but this is so damned boring I can;t keep it up. I'm off to work on BBNO.
