Not allowed by who? ;-) 
Anyway there is nothing as useful as a good crack when you need it ;-)

I know this maybe a bit off topic but...
If software authors price there products exorbitantly there is no choice
for poor home users like us but to get a shareware or trial version of the
product and either crack it oursleves or run a crack that someone else has
kindly provided.

Fr ex there is a pretty good utility caled VMWARE <http://www.vmware.com>
which enables LINUX users to run WINDOWS (yes, the whole OS) as a virtual
machine under X/LINUX or vice versa.

A very useful program one has to admit. But guess how much it is priced?
over 300 US$ !!!??? IIRC. Now who can afford that much money, and since
there is no equivalent free software available (WINE is not as good as
VMWARE) the only choice was to crack it...
 
Best Wishes,
