no

not copying the code that falls under copyright law lol

what i mean is say a script generates 2000 pages every second in php i heard that if you make an exact clone of that script using your own code it is illegal

i dont think it is personally but i wanted to check with the keyboard lawyers forst ;)

huh... not unless they have a patent on the specific techniques of the software... you can create your own version of any software as long as you dont copy the code...
