You all have very good points there... yet I have seen so many russian and french sites hosting illegal / cracking / "Security" related content.

I think crack me's are the way to go, and as long as you have permission from your host, there shouldn't be a problem. However, I am going to research this alot more.

Can anyone tell me a little more about the DMCA? Or give me a link to the "Law"?
Did anyone read my last post? What does everyone think about my Crack Me idea? I thought it'd be quite useful for newbie's, and still help people to crack REAL LIFE programs without doing anything illegal.
