My brother has the cd (lives across the country)and I was wondering if there is any way to burn a copy of the cd for me to install and then use my own cd key on it. Is there any 3rd party software to do this cause I know you cant just burn the cd.. there is some type of prevension. Thanks

BTW: This is completely legal! I purchased the CD and still have the cd case but lost the actual CD. I am using my own purchased cd key but need the software! Does Blizzard have a replacement system? I looked on their site and couldnt see anything.

Drizzy, Fileplanet has a free trial. You can download it there (that's what I did). If you still need the CDs, PM me (though it will take you a week to get them).

He's talking about Warcraft 3 not World of Warcraft.

I'm sure that if you purchased the game its perfectly legal to download from any site which would normally be deemed "illegal"

Yes, they have a replacement system. Not free.

You could prob download the ISO somewhere and use the key you own but I won't discuss further.
