[en] Guillermito vs Tegam

At least some excitement in the French computer security little world!
Tegam has found a new protection against security holes: they do not patch, they bring the publisher to justice. As far as I know, they never did the same against virus writers. Isn't it odd?
Finally, Guillermito was lightly condemned because he used a pirated copy of Viguard. The court did not even judge that Guillermito had defamed their software.
All this is not so important, even for Frenchmen: Tegam is a small company, virtually unknown outside of the country.
Anyway, if you intend to buy their products, you'd better read the contract several times.
