What's the relationship between Web Wiz and Betamakers Community Applications?

It stuck me as odd that there was another classic ASP forum still in active development and one that was last updated the same time as Web Wiz. Upon closer inspection, it appears to have identical functionality and similar page names (ForumTopics.asp instead of forum_topics.asp).

I wasn't able to download the software, so that's as far as I was able to go.

We have no relationship with Betamakers who are distributing a pirate version of our Web Wiz Forums version 9 software and we are presently taking legal action against them.

The code is identical to Web Wiz Forums all they have done is change some page names, CSS, and images and then passing it off as their own application.

You would not be able to legally use the software from Betamakers as it is pirate version and therefore unlicensed.
