O.E.M Software

no doubt that it's illegal...

It is what I said in my original thread
However I did not get an answer to my question
I understood from BSA (Business Software Alliance )site that it is not illegal to download and to save a copy on your hard disk of "pirated" software as long as you don't use it to make a profit (reselling or developing commercial applications )
If so, it would be great for hobbyest programmers same as me and I suppose a lot of people here
I would be happy to have the opinion of a lawyer on this matter
