The form they have you fill out has this line in it:

". I am aware that files generated with this copy of the program can
be identified by CadSoft."

So I assume they are just using it as a scare tactic, or they is some
way they can tell.

To my knowledge the Gerber (RS-274-D) files don't contain any source identifier. And if it does, it can easily be removed as Gerber is simply a text file. My point is that a company telling a customer they can't sell any board created with their software is a rediculious scare tactic. (IMHO)
