Getting 'Punished' for Using Pirated Software

Steganos has a piece of software which allows you to create encrypted containers. The Stagenos software is 'freely' available on the P2P networks. just download it and use a key found somewhere on the Internet. This won't help you though.....

You simply install a copy of Steganos Safe 8 but not the new security suite and when doing this you turn "OFF" the update feature temporarily and use a fake serial code you get off the net. Simply mount anyones .SLE file encrypted drive into the software and it will ask you for their password but won't let you in because it's encrypted.

From this point you want to turn the "update" feature back on and force steganos to update by right clicking it in your system tray or restarting the software. From this point it will detect you had used a fake or known serial after the update and it will now PUNISH you by resetting your encrypted drives passwords to "123" until you buy a registered copy.

This means that ANYONE is able to open your encrypted content stored in the container. Just use pirated software to open the containers.

Thankfully, Truecrypt is still freeware :-) . Too bad it still isn't available for OSX :cry: .
