GaylaM it's understandable that you downloaded something from a server located in another country where copyright laws might be different. I highly doubt that you'll lose your internet connection or anything will happen to you. If you don't feel comfortable having it on our computer you can safely delete it. Mainly the copyright laws that differ from country to country so even if it's assumed that it is still protected here in the U.S. and out of print it's not a serious problem unless you're distributing it through the internet to thousands of other people. I think many people hear horror stories about big brother watching everything we do or the stories about people being sued for illegally downloading stuff and going to jail. I seriously doubt this applies to your situation. If it's public domain in Canada and not in the U.S. I'm pretty sure it's not in print and you're aren't denying a publisher their due royalties.
