"If Mr Torrens hadn't kept a copy of the software, why was he asking to crack it?
His original post was contradictory about whether he had the software or not:"
His public posts may have been ambiguous but his private correspondence with VA wasn't.
Anyway, if he's deleted it from his comuter(s) and hasn't kept a copy why has he steadfastly refused to make a simple declaration that this is so? That's all VA has ever required of him.
