@petewall,

Well I'm sorry but since you have evidence of cracked or pirated software you're using on the system I have no choice but to close this thread now.

We will not be party to obvious use of key gens, cracks, warez or other illegal means of downloading software, music, videos ect. This means no P2P evidence will be supported. Keygens, cracks, warez and similar will have the thread closed period. It's theft and against the law.
