"This copy Linex Legal" is a slogan I use in his day the Junta de Extremadura to promote circulation and that could well be estrapolar to Open Office today. Gloger is gerund, I found this article on UbuntuArte . Take a look that is priceless

"A promotional message from OpenOffice, cites that 35% of software in the world are pirated or illegal, we asked whether our software is legal and clearly described Microsoft's strategy.

"After years of unofficially tolerating piracy as a means of securing control of the market, Microsoft is now conducting an offensive to ensure that copies of their software is legitimate:

* Just buy AssetMetrix, a software company specializing in detecting what programs we have installed in our PCs
* You are using the internet to install detection software copies of MS-Office on users' PCs.
* Throughout the world, the Business Software Alliance is organizing efforts to prosecute those who violate their conditions - for example in the UK offers great financial rewards to any informer who reports to companies that use pirated software.
* Microsoft itself admits that clients have difficulty understanding the complexities of software licensing - it's easy to accidentally break their conditions. "
Note that OpenOffice is a perfectly viable alternative, and further copies are legal and will not cost you money. "
