YES...that is piracy. It breaches copyright laws. YOU wouldn't like it if (for example) you wrote a novel - and someone copied the manuscript - passing it off as their own work.

You only modify the registry if you know how to use a computer (as it can cause serious damage leaving your computer unusable), if that is true then there should have been no need to post this question.
