id believe it, wpe pro spys on packets. Norton calls it a hacktool and it pretty much is a hacktool and hacking is kinda illegal..

Nice proof Anmar...I don't think it is illegal...are they just gonna come onto your room and say...show me your pc and then they take yoiu to jail and give you life without parol? Come on...

If this was illegal I don't think they'd go to shut this program down first. They would start with P2Ps and stuff. (YEY4ILLEGALDOWNLOADS)

[Vis]

It's only illegal if you use it for illegal purposes. Just downloading is not illegal.

[nick]

Just like most other programs (limewire, bittorrents, etc)

[Remake]

i doubt it but u never know

[Clint]

Yes it is i talked about this with some people at mpcforum.com ..... and sniffing packets from the server is illegal... and wpe pro can be used to DOS so yes thats illegal too...as far as i know memory editors are 100% legal because they modfity the memory but modiftying packets that are sent to the server i think is illegal.. i dont know about that one tho

[Prophet-]

Yes. It goes against the Terms of Useage so there it would be illegal.. Its a form of hacking, editing that which isnt yours.. The program itself isnt illegal, but filtering that sort of stuff with it is.
