IMHO you should be warned again for just plain stupidity.
"DVD copying" or copyright infringement is a federal offence.
obviously "password recovery software" would be used to get other passwords.
getting another member software is also an example of copyright infringement.
please use common sense next time.
DVD copying is not a federal offense. You are SPECIFICALLY allowed to make copy's of your DVD's and software for the purpose of backing up your personal items. You probably should read copyright law as well, as nearly 98% of copyright infringement doesn't fall under Criminal Law, and must be handled in civil court. Which therefor no longer makes it an offense.
All the software distributed for password recovery is also completely legal if used on your own accounts/machine.
The exception is downloading "security software" that helps you "test your" networks for vulnerabilities....but, that's only illegal in Germany.
