It's not an "illegal manner" unless a court finds that it is - otherwise, the strongest accurate pejorative you use would be "acting in a manner that violates an EULA." Of course, it's already been pointed out numerous times that said EULA isn't even legally-valid in a large of part (most?) of the world. And even in the places where it's considered a valid contract, the actual legal-enforceability is pretty questionable.
Not a valid comparison - that would be a clear-cut violation of copyright law. A more comparable situation would be if someone posted instructions for (E.g.) using a VM to run a version of Vista which doesn't "allow" that usage in the EULA.
