Well, long story short, there is a leaked version of VB4 (alpha) , without any piracy protection / license requirements. Its being sold in China for $5 ....and those chaps are providing hosting as well...(some bulletproof servers). For obvious reason, I cant post the urls...
My questions are -
1) How legal is tht ? What is someone makes minor customization and modification to the alpha software and distributes it, what can VB do ?
2) Since I personally saw the VB software (including the admincp) , it seemed more like 3.8.5 to me, rather than the next level VB. How different wud be the beta (or the gold) version of VB . At this moment, its just not good enough....
3) Just to let you know, I have been told that there are major security defects , and this leak just helps the hackers to come up with exploits sooner than expected.
Any comments would be highly appreciated.
