I got a PICC compiler from a friend, but its a cracked version
not that I'm "suggesting you to do this" but if you "happen to search" for a cracked version of Hitech PICC compiler you might find one.
However, sometimes its worth it to buy it, no risks involved ( maybe theres a virus in it?) and its the decent thing to do.
anyhow, my friend send me a whole folder filled with cool stuff ( rof different PIC compiler, some e-books..) he said he found the folder named PIC on some torrent site or something.
Hope I helped ( within the legal limits of the law
lol)
