WARNING! You may be using an illegitimate copy of Corel X5

[Bigdawg]

We bought X5 not too long after it first came out. I rarely use it - mostly I grab some clip art or open a customer file. It worked fine last week... today I got this... we bought a full version, shrinkwrapped and all!!! Any thoughts as to why? Or has anyone else gotten this?

I just downloaded it from Corel last week or so ago when they had that huge marked down price. No problems so far.

Do hope ya bought it from CorelDraw, they will be able to correct

If not like I did not sure what to say & yes it was all shirked wrap & all, but even just using it for practice & learning it starts to slow the PC down so slow the PC will not hardly open.
Also ya will not be able to save etc.

After removing back to normal speed.

Not sure what I'll do, I like the program & need it to advance more. kinda starting to learn stuff on it & finding a need ...Rats ..Hope it can be resolved I like to know.

Since CorelDraw wants $180 for X5 which is alot to me guess I'll give Art's & letters a try

Give inkscape a try Craig - its a little bit harder to learn, but is free and has most if not all of the necessary functions
