IN-GAME ONLY: Downloading software illegally

I'd use Computer Operation for both finding and downloading such software. Streetwise or other social skills can be used as complementary skills, representing asking around for what software exists that solves your use case. If you're good/lucky, someone will give you a download link.

For stealing software, you may have to use Computer Hacking. This will be necessary if the software isn't publicly available (you have to break into a private server) or if you normally would need a license key to use the software.

Obviously, I don't do these things in real life, either.
