To me it sounds somewhat fishy. Check out this page. Quote:
Why is the software so inexpensive?
We offer the software for downloading only, it means that you do not receive a fancy package, a printed manual and license that actually aggregate the largest part of the retail price. In this situation we are restricted in selling the products for private purposes only! You will not be able to get a technical support and different rebates from the manufacturer. Updates are available for the most of our products (you may ask our support staff for the exceptions) that make them fully functional and operating. Additionally you save the delivery cost.

| Note what I've highlighted. It is my experience with software, the LICENSE to use it, is what makes it legal or not, does it not?

At best I would guess it might be OEM software from an eastern block country. The website has no contact info or location of the company.

Looks like a scam, I bet once you downlaod the software it will not work because you dont have the product key.
