The only legal way of using the Mac OS is by purchasing it, or downloading it from Apple - or copying the software for your own use.


Using unofficial download sites is illegal and dangerous. Since it's not from Apple, it may contain viruses that could infect your computer - or other computers that network with it. Since the Apple's OS has been free for several years, there's no reason to risk your's or others' computers.


The best way to stop pirated software is download directly from Apple or Software Update on your Apple machine.
