If you do not own the copyrighted work, remove the work from all computers and other devices where stored. If the file continues to be shared, Connect2First will continue to receive infringement notices about your account, and your account will be terminated pursuant to our DCMA Repeat Infringer Policy. We also recommend you remove the file sharing program that is being used to share the files.
