Has it occured to anyone  that the copy protection is part of the reason HJ
now FS was able to grow so quickly?  I've come across a few users who
cracked jaws authorizations in the past. However,  I've come across far many
more people using win eyes for free.  It's this loss of revenue to the
company that prevents them from expanding more quickly.  I'm sure many of us
might be running "free" versions of windows.  This isn't anywhere near the
impact for a company that literally has millions and millions of people
running it.  When it comes down to a small company where the numbers may
only be in the thousands there is a big difference.

My point is simply that GW Micro doesn't see the need to spend huge
amounts of money on copy-protection schemes, while FS does. If the
problem
is so rampent with JAWS as FS makes it out to be, one wonders how GW
Micro
can stay afloat since it must be so much easier to do.
Agreed was not negating your point was just trying to answer your
questions!
