You people are all security crazy, was reloading software I own.

[none]

Going through all of this ridiculous security when tryng to reload software
after a computer problem or repair is unecessary and provides harrassment for
the user. You need to reduce the hassle for this type of operatioin. Or, do
you really expect the user to purchase new software every time they have to
reload because of a repair or crash?

I guess we expect people to install what they are legally entitled to
without infringing the license agreement. Programmers have to be paid;
shareholders have to receive a return on their investment; other
ancilliary staff have to be paid; Software is a labor intensive
industry and so it needs to be financed somehow.

If you can afford to buy additional copies of software everytime your
dilapidated and archaic system crashes the better it is for further
development of products.

You're right - it should go back to the way it was when anyone could make
illegal copies and then no one would ever have to buy it again. We'd just
steal from the company - who cares about them?

BTW - Do you leave your doors open when you aren't home? I mean apparently
nobody ever steals things that don't belong to them, right?
