Dear Sir or Madam,

Recently, we have received an increasing amount of feedback from our customers
in regard to the probable copyright infringement of Diablo, Diablo II,
Starcraft, Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition, Warcraft III and World of Warcraft
products (each, a "Program") on the Internet. We here at Blizzard share the
concerns that many gamers are voicing. In this regard, we have contacted one of
your users in connection with the aforementioned site and the infringement of
Blizzard intellectual property.

Please note that all title, ownership, and intellectual property rights in and
to each Program and any and all copies thereof (including, but not limited to,
any titles, computer code, objects, characters, character names, stories,
dialog, catch phrases, locations, artwork, animations, sounds, musical
compositions, audio-visual effects, methods of operation, any related
documentation, and "applets" incorporated into a Program) are owned by Blizzard
Entertainment or its licensors. Each Program is protected by the trademark and
copyright laws of the United States, international copyright treaties and
conventions, and other laws. Blizzard reserves all rights in each Program,
except those rights granted by Blizzard in writing. Each Program contains
certain licensed materials, and Blizzard's licensors may protect their rights or
rely on Blizzard to protect those rights in the event of any violation of the
end user license agreement and copyright law.

As part of our effort to protect all proprietary rights related to Diablo,
Diablo II, Starcraft, Warcraft, Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition, Warcraft III
and World of Warcraft, we would like you to promptly remove all materials
infringing onand/or all materials which allow others to infringe on the
copyrights and/or trademarks of Blizzard Entertainment's products from the
aforementioned site which you host or disable access to such site. This includes
any unauthorized software, artwork, images, sounds or derivative works thereof
that may be on the aforementioned site. Additionally, we would appreciate it if
you would communicate this request to those individuals involved in the creation
and maintenance of your web site.

Please be advised that at this time you have forty eight (48) hours in which to
comply with our request otherwise we will be forced to pursue formal action. We
would like to thank you in advance for choosing to work with us in a unified
effort to promote the integrity of our games and the well being of our online
gaming community.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Haha, I love the fill-in-the-blank latter, identical to the one Stealth got.

Oh well.  I checked and that folder is gone, so I assume that Joe got rid of it. 

<edit> I still stand by my initial assessment that there's nothing illegal there, but it's easier to just do what they say than pursue a legal battle.  Of course, since I'm in Canada, they can't touch me.  It's too bad my DNS isn't :)

*cough*
Rename the folder to "game_stuff"

It's an American company, and I'm Canadian.  Unless Canada extradites me (which I doubt they'd do for something so silly), they couldn't take me to court in the first place.

It strikes me as odd that they didn't just send you a DMCA notice.  That's how I believe Blizzard has worked in the past.  How did you receive this notice?  E-mail would surprise me as well.  I believe legal notices (I realize this isn't one, but meh) would only be sent by certified mail.  Did you examine the e-mail headers?  Further, when Blizzard contacts you, they generally include the name of the representative that sent you the email.  That's been my experience at least.
