  Hi all,
  
  Be careful if you are surfing or downloading anything from the net if you are using PIRATED or UNAUTHORISED SOFTWARE such as MS WINDOWS, AUTOCAD, MACROMEDIA Software and such on your pc...
  
  Personally, I do not know how true it is that the authorities have been looking into this matter... No matter what, I hope u guys out there do take precautions.
  
  Cheers all
