I was playing around on the internet this morning and googled "cheap software" and found a couple websites offering downloads of Dreamweaver, Macromedia Studio, etc. for something like $35-$55 to downloads a full version, with serial # and everything. Some sites said the sofware was OEM and others said original current version. What is up with this? Has anyone ever used a site like this, if so, what was your experience?

Be very careful...it could be pirated software that contains viruses. It may or may not work properly. As Momma' always said..'If it sounds too good to be true..it probably is!'

Software crackz, bootlegged software copies with broken serial numbers (key gen). Sometimes the bootlegged copies are incomplete or may have spyware attached. Buyer beware. User beware. Know your supplier.
