Hi, If I am not wrong, I do not see what legal foot they have to standon if they tried to take it to court. Making Star Trekk a Registerable game might violate it, but making a free ware with no Copyright is totallylegal, unless I am missing something (which is always possible). Best Regards, Hayden
