SE Gold and some questions

The game would have to be licensed as freeware by Malfador, as Shrapnel does not own the copyright to the game. And it has not been, so sending out pirated copies would definitely be frowned upon. Just wait until September and you should be able to download a patch to update your copy of SEIV Classic to the SEIV Deluxe version that will be coming out.

You could always buy someones spare copy. Post an ad and see if any one has a spare they would be willing to sell.

Which is very fortunate, because if I understand things correctly, publishers usually insist on owning the copyright to anything they publish... of course, the nice folks at Shrapnel might be able to be convinced to release it as freeware just as easily (or easier) as Malfador, but that's rather irrelevant since Malfador's decided to go commercial with it and release some sort of patch as well
