| Microsoft Corp has announced legal actions against eight software dealers in the U.S., Canada, Egypt and the Netherlands that are alleged to have engaged in the illegal sale of unlicensed Microsoft software and software components. These actions were in response to hundreds of reports to the Microsoft anti-piracy hotline (800) RU-LEGIT from customers who were concerned that they had been sold software they were not licensed to use. In 2003, about 36% of the software installed on PCs globally was unlicensed, costing the global economy $28.8 billion. Between 2003 and 2006, that loss rose by $10.6 billion, while the global software piracy rate dropped only one point to 35%, according to the May/07 Business Software Alliance annual Global Software Piracy Study.
