Are the free books at programmerworld legal?

A search for programming books turned up programmerworld.net where
I found tons of books that can be downloaded for free. Some of
these are fairly recent (2006). Are these just authors who allow
electronic distribution of their books or is something fishy going
on here?

The site only provides links to other sites that have supposedly provided
"free" books. You would have to visit each of those sites to get an answer
to your question.

Nope. Thanks for pointing it out. There is so much material on
the net that I zero in on what I want from page to page and almost
never read all of the menus and text content. I did look around
a bit on this page for a "About Us" link, but didn't find one.
