To some extent, decompilation and reverse engineering is prohibited by
certain entities and governments.  It is an unlawful act against the author
of the said product.  Be it an electronic device, machinery or software.

But for me, i must say we are free to learn new things, explore and expand
the mind.  To decompile a piece of software to *LEARN* how it works, to
know how *WEAK* or strong its protection is, then i guess its a matter of
choice and conscience.

Please respond regarding your progress.
