Some punk is selling CCleaner on eBay! Go see for yourself!

Someone should really either contact ebay or contact the idiot who posted it.

I contacted him and asked him what hes up to. Madness. :rolleyes:

I give it until the end of the day before it is gone. :lol:

Why is he selling something that is free.....and why would some one pay for something that is free? :unsure:

That's Capitalism 4 ya all :D

Maybe he put it up as a joke, heh...

Maybe people would buy it because they dont know that it is avaible for free?

CCleaner is freeware, he is allowed to freely redistribute it, but I dont know about selling it...

He's also selling TuneUp Utilities 2006 as an email attachment when I had a look at his other items for sale.

I smell a pirate.

What he is doing is DEFINITELY illegal.

can't see any idiot willing to pay for freeware like ccleaner unless ur name is bill gates...

Looks like someone has bought a copy off him.

Now saying 299 available, was 300 the other day.

If anyone's got a ebay account why don't you guys post some comments stating it is a free piece of software and provide a link?

I think that's illegal beause CCleaner is freeware and nobody is allowed to distribute it in another licence.

But clever people would do a web search on 'CCleaner' before they buy from that dude...

Well, selling it wouldnt be distributing it under another license, it would be distributing it and charging.

Still not sure if allowed todo so.

Nice one twisted hopefully they will remove it.

Ebay slow to act...so u would have to wait for their "investigation"...

I might have stood on a few toes but I did log on to ebay and sent the guy a question asking why he's selling something which is free to download. I'm not really expeecing an answer.

As a matter of interest he's selling a few bit sof software which I thought were free

BTW Mods if I've over stepped the mark here, your well within your right to come down on me.

If someone has the time and patience those other software developers should be contacted!

His buyer has left him feedback.

He didn't even send his buyer the software, just a link to CCleaner's website to download it. (for free)
