Prohibition of the program

Since the program is contrary with the possibility to bypass several DVD encryption techniques against a law adopted in October 2003 Copyright Act, LIGHTNING UK was! forced in June 2005 to discontinue the development immediately. As a result, the copy protection manufacturer Macrovision Corporation acquired all rights to the software and let it remove from most mirrors.
