All,


Not sure I understand what the issue is here. I have purchased Fruit 2.2 once
and loaded it onto 3 machines and obtained the code from Fruit in each case
within a couple of hours.

It is no secret that many of the commercial CB engines have been pirated and
made available illegally on peer to peer file sharing networks (apparantly
without the need for CD/serial numbers ?)...so what is wrong with Fruit ensuring
copy protection so that only those of us who have paid can enjoy it's use ?
