LINK TO PIRATED SOFTWARE REMOVED - MANAGEMENT

This is a link I found sreaching up battlezone II PB6 in the follow desc. it said includes Race Project which gives me a clue that its vearie. Also this is strange I dont click download or anything and automaticly my NOD32 virus scanner found a thing that was a .trojain

I would recomend using ur antivirus if u do end up clicking the link...

I don't think that is a virus. But it IS ILLEGAL.

Yeah, that was Vearie. Don't download anything of his until it's been thoroughly checked :P

I've got my own copy of this, and I've not turned anything up yet.

The annoying thing is, there are so many links/torrents floating around that anyone can get the game without effort .. however, and this is what I find most bothersome, most (if not all) the stuff I've seen doesnt invite me to DL it .. I wouldnt touch it with a 10" pole.

Spend a few bucks and put in the effort to buy a secondhand copy, if that comes out scratched you at least can say you once payed for a license .. at least.

But lets face it, legal hard copies of BZ2 are going to become harder and harder to get hold of and torrents are always risky if its copyrighted material, some very nasty viruses are often posted disguised as torrents of copyrighted material, But usually its stuff everyone wants because its too expensive to buy.

As per these board's rules, links to pirated software are not allowed. Taking credit for it is not appreciated either. In short, let me summarize the rules on pirated software around here:

"Don't ask, don't tell."

Clear? Unlike the US Military, DADT is still in effect here.
