Will I get in trouble for this?

Today I ordered CuteFTP on the internet, and they said that I would get my serial pretty much instantly on my email. Well like 30 min passed and I got impatient so I went and found a serial number on the net. I put it in the little slot and it went through VERIFICATION with Globalscape then denied me.

Anyways, I later found out that I had not completed the order form and that is why I didn't get my serial.

So I now have entered my registered serial and it works fine.

Do you think I'll get traced or anything or get in trouble?

I normally don't do this but well you know how impatient you can get sometimes...

Yes my conscience likes to bug me.

If you could give me your location on earth (coordinates preferred, rather than address), we'll send over a few nukes to destroy your house and destroy all evil that you may have infected by being impatient.

Calm down man, they rarely arrest people who cheat software without a legitimate purpose, so your chances of getting so much as looked at in a funny way by anyone regarding this matter is low.

so you could have entered it wrong? Dont let it bother you. They normally dont bother individuals.. only corporations they bother.

relax.. its only ftp.. BTW, why not use &quot;WS FTP LE&quot; the lite version.
Its free for home use.

I seriously consider this the best piece of software since Napster.

And no I won't tell you why :)
