Not sure if this is the right place or not but here's my question anyways: How would one spot a nulled vBulletin install? Is there any specific files that would be changed? If so which files and what would I be looking for?
The reason I ask is because I run both a free and paid hosting company and I've been seeing an increase of free hosting clients using vBulletin on their sites. I'm not sure how they can afford a vB license but not a domain but far be it from me to start questioning their financials. I just wanted to know if there is a way my staff and I can do a quick check to verify their vBulletin is legit?
I usually don't pry into my client's files but when it comes to free hosting I have to make sure everything is legit, more-so than my paid hosting customers because the free clients have nothing to lose where-as I have much at stake (if you've had a server taken offline due to a DCMA complaint you'll understand what I mean ).
Thanks.
