That means it wasn't intentional. So nobody "pulled anything" on the guys who did Stacker.

How do you then explain the Stacker code found in Disk Doubler? How about one of Stacker's coder's mother's name still left in the code?

They didn't even file off the serial numbers!

Silly, silly little man: You've been taken in by urban myth scam artists with an axe to grind against M$. That nonsense is simply false. Here's a clue: If Stac had proof of such chicanery, it would have sued M$ not only for patent infringement -- but also copyright violation. Stac didn't do that -- because no such code exists.
