The Web site Bink.nu reported that one user was tracked down by Microsoft through an ISP after the user downloaded the code on a peer-to-peer site. Microsoft has declined to discuss the specifics of the letter, but Bink reported that it contains a threat of legal action unless the copy of the
code is destroyed.
