Bogus Software Purchased at DML

I just received an update on the Software I purchased from DML Computing Colorado Springs, Co. (we talked about the issue at the last meeting on 6 October).

The software was/is counterfeit, I would advise anyone who purchased software or had software loaded on their computer from this shop. If they are having any issues they should contact the MFG and have their software checked.
