It seems that Microsoft used an Illegal copy of Soundforge 4.5 for working on WAV files in Windows XP.
IF you think this is just a rumor then go view it yourself by using a text editor to open any WAV files in map C:/Windows/Help/Tours/WindowsMediaPlayer/Audio/Wav/ at your harddisk.
The last line of the file shows you:
LISTB INFOICRD 2000-04-06 IENG Deepz0ne ISFT Sound Forge 4.5
Deepz0ne is a cracker in the Radium Group.
Good one eh.

Is SF still in bussiness? I hope they get some good cash in a trial against MS.

SonicFoundry has been taken over by Sony last year or so.

The question though is whether Microsoft even had anything to do with this. Perhaps the WAV files came from a diabolical 3rd party programmer?

Hah! LOL!!
It seems that the WAV files under the windowsmedia folder are legitimate, though...
