One of the many potential dangers and problems with doing the pirated software is that you don't know what kind of "parasites" it may carry with it. I'd talk to Corel long before I did any pirated version.

If not, try doing it. - If an uninstaller is included, uninstalll the app and install it again. - Try deleting Painter preferences. Apart from that, the only option I can think of is asking help to Corel's support.

I'm sorry to say this, but most problem of this kind comes from original and legally bought software. Ironically, you often have less trouble running pirated software: as an extreme measure, you could find a pirated copy of Painter X (try Torrent, Rapidshare...) and trying that (your conscience would be fine, since you own a legit license ;-). -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
