Technically in Serbia there is no such thing as software licence in law.
Software is regarded as copy of CD , when you buy CD you own software,
therefore reverse engineering and hacking of said software
is explicitly  allowed by the law.
Microsoft pushed muscles (perhaps bouhgt right people),
 that tax collector agents perform
task of mafia, that is enter some private company,
enter usb stick or diskete which will boot DOS and read windows 
registry. Then they have to show bills for software.
All in all there are no knolegable layer in Serbia to
write non contravrsial law, as in Segrbia software == CD.
There is no such thing shareware , if tehy give yo uto dowload
you own it and yu can reverse engener it.
Perhaps microsoft should write new law, as Serbina law
in current state is nothing but huck to allow microsoft mafia thing.
Of course those tax agents don;t check government pirated
software, because goverment can;t collect tax from itslef ;)
