hey guys, i don't know if any of you already know this. But i thought i should just tell you guys anyway. There is this website that offers free username and password for non-members to access GMC website for free...so i was wondering is it legal or okay to do that? I don't know where they get the passwords and username from though...just concerned huh.gif

I think it worked on the same basis as P2P downloading. Anyone can share his login, and many people could use it. So somebody had to "share" his data, they most probably don't hack sites or break any security facilities. Anyway bad sport.

There's no hacking, just someone sharing their account with others.
