Hallo Leute,
also langsam glaube ich es echt, heute erhilet ich folgende Email von der Firma Netobject (die, die eine Websoftware herstellen die u.a. bei 1 und 1 sozusagen verschenkt wird). Leider kann ich kein Englisch oder besser kaum, deshalb meine bitte wer kann mir so ungefähr den Text übersetzten. Ich denk es geht um eine ang. illegal inst. Software die mit einer falschen Seriennummer manipuliert wurde, soviel konnt ich übersetzten. Aber irgendwie kommt mir das auch spanisch vor.. Was soll ich tun oder besser was bedeutetn solche Mails. also eines vorweg, ich habe keine illegale Software auf dem Rechner nur wie gesagt Netobjects 5.0 die von 1und1 mit richtiger und offizieller Seriennummer und o-CD.
Hier der Text:
