Try BabelFish - it isnt perfect, but its quite good at translation in many
cases.

In defense of their "intellectual property", some companies will prosecute
ANY infringement - they have very deep pockets.. For example, the
UltraHLE Emulator was pulled down due to Nintendo's threats of legal
action against the two authors. Although that was probably a definate
infringement, the principle still applies. The numbers of people involved
are irrelevant.
