    is it legal...

    if i keep old copies of the board i download

    lets say i got a license at 2.2.5 and its now 3.0.1

    can i keep 2.2.5 - 2.2.6 - 2.2.7 - 2.2.8 - 2.2.9 ~ ect?


    and what happens if my license expires can i keep the files and not use them or burn them at the stake?

    i always keep the older copies i have 1.1.3 through to 2.2.6rc right now

    it's okay as long as you're not distributing them or running an expired leased license Vb from them

      You can keep the files as long as you have a valid license. If you don't have a valid license you will need to remove them from your posession (i.e. delete them).

          Man, I wish I had a copy of the last version of vBulletin1. I kind of want to play around with it.

              tsk, tsk, tsk...

              A copy of vBulletin on a CD, man...you're wasting almost 749MB of the CD!

              ...I think I'm forgetting another reason not to have scripts on CD...hmm....give me a few minutes to remember what it was...

                        I left it on my other computer which is half way to Belgium now. (where i am moving) I'll have it in like a month and send it to you. Or you can ask LK, he gave it to me.

                              This one's personal.. I bought and run vB on my own site and this isn't company related. What was your site anyways? I don't really recall... nice to see fellow owners here though
