What's this?

Monday, August 7, 2006 by J. Aroche | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I found this site when I checked out the referrals from one of my skins, but apparently they put the skins in there site with their sub-divisions for objectdock, desktopx, cursorxp, windowblinds, and some other programs, but the curious thing is that the preview that we create for our skins, are modified with the page url, and you can actually download the skins from that site.

And right now I downloaded the cursor I did called ladybug from that site to see if it was actually the file, and it is! Besides, it was in a .rar file (I placed them in a zip file) and included in the file was a link to the page, with the title "Downloaded from Quickstyle.ru"

I believe we have a problem here...

This should be a big concern to Stardock.

I've found these kind of links on numerous referrals on my docks. Many of them seem to be from china and/or japan and a few from russia. Right now my Eminence docks alone have 180 referrals.

Yes, I found many referrals from that site of many skins, but I don't know what can be done...

And I didn't noticed the dog was there

Wow, these people seriously suck. I'm surprised they actual have their own layout, and didn't steal it from someone else.

I recommend not to post a link to a cracked product bratdimitt .

Well, there's a Japanese version of Stardock and a Aussie version.. maybe this is the Russian version.

. maybe this is the Russian version.



I was thinking the same thing - they have a Stardock forum. And if you click on the area that says cursorxp they have more cursors from here.( J' your black and white is there too. ) The only thing that wouldnt make sense is the fact that all the Stardock programs have a download + crack ( even in russiunthe word is still crack.  xxxxx

I don't believe so. I have searched the site and found software you are able to download and use that requires a purchase through Stardock. I won't post the link directly so everyone and their brother is able to go and download the ripped/cracked/stolen software.

If someone from Stardock needs the link, though, I would be happy to provide it...privatley of course.
