I recieved this IM as well. The solution is simple: Just say no.

I politely refused and the person left me alone with little to no hassle. Just keep in mind that participating in this sort of thing can get you in legal trouble if you comply.

We're working on a solution to this particular issue and future occurrences of it.

It supposed to be ISO, they are CD Back UP Images. ISO is just the file type of the back up.

This shouldn't even matter, to be a warning in all. It's pretty simple, no one here is going to give a CD Key for free anyways. Plus that I'm aware of once you login with your CD Key it becomes garbage unless you need it for any account problems to prove you own it. It will then stick to your account so even if he used your CD key it wouldn't work for him.

So sad to see such dumb people IMing people for keys. Thank God I use MSN who I talk to real life friends on. AIM is like the devil...
