What you are saying is correct (about forums getting shut down for pirating), but I don't think that what Jay said was a 'request for pirated software.' He merely asked if anyone knew where he could get a certain program for free. Maybe he was asking for a program that he thought was free, but simply couldn't find. For example...
"Does anyone know where I can get Ad-Aware 6.0 for free?"
It's just a question.
It's not a request for pirated material because there are actually websites that you can get it free. Downloads.com will give you a free version of Ad-Aware 6.0 along with any updates that come along. I don't think Jay (or this forum) could get into any trouble for what he said.
