   You have a serious problem.  Just look at the words you use to describe   
   a  legitimate copyright owner.  Just because you want the free programs   
   doesn't mean they don't have a legit claim.  Yet you dismiss them and   
   demean them.   
      
   I think that says a lot more about you than the actual owner of the program.
