Buy it direct from Ross-tech.
Whats it for? If its just for general clearing fault codes, adaptations etc then get an ebay cable and the lite version of the software (think its £69 iirc)
If its for professional/business use, then buy one of the packages from ross-tech. They do plenty to suit your needs.

Yeh thats obviously a pirated copy. I use a £12 ebay cable with a £69 copy of the software and its done everything I've ever asked of it.
Some of the pirated copies can be ok, but some of them are difficult to get working.
I just thought for £80 ish quid, it wasnt worth the hassle of messing around with dodgy copies

As above if its for older vehicles as this is what I have done.
If you want to do the newer vehicles though you need the lead with can-bus or something like that else you cannot read anything other than engine as I have just found out.
Latest version is VCDS-Lite 1.1
