In the USA it's illegal to revere engineer anything, even if it'd be
for educational use (A somewhat recent example is deCSS, the
"cracking" of the copy protection used by DVD's). However these law
rules differ in every country, sometimes even for different things
(ie. machines vs software). So if you're unsure about a legal issue,
always ask an expert (am not one), and definitely not some random
collection of strangers (also known as the web).
Either get a lawyer, or remain uncertain

I completely agree with Ian but I am not so sure your first assumption
is as certain as you state. Many licenses state that you are not
allowed to "reverse engineer" their code. Its questionable what that
means (or if its enforcable) but I do know its part of quite a few
EULAs.
