Hello and welcome to MSFC. We are a small and close knitted community who specialises in modding the game Star Trek Armada 2 and the Fleet Operations modification, however we have an open field for discussing a number of topics including movies, real life events and everything in-between.
Being such a close community, we do have some restrictions, including all users required to be registered before being able to post as well as all members requiring to have participated in the community for sometime before being able to download our modding files to name the main ones. This is done for both the protection of our members and to encourage new members to get involved with the community. We also require all new registrations to first be authorised by an Administrator and to also have an active and confirmed email account.
We have a policy of fairness and a non harassment environment, with the staff quick to act on the rare occasion of when this policy is breached. Feel free to register and join our community.
It's not an illegal program... maybe banned (though I don't see why anyone would ban recording one's own screen). Fraps is a simple desktop recording program, just a bit more advanced than the screen-capture/print-screen functions built into windows. I do recommend one has plenty of RAM when using a program to record videos from whats on your screen.
Fraps is not a free program mind you. Currently costs $37. They allow people to test it out with a typical trial period, in which one can record upto 30 seconds, and embeds a watermark on the top of the videos. The full paid version doesn't have these limits or watermarks.

Does running it with A2 cause any game lag?
There is also a program called Snag-it. It does the same thing as Fraps, and is $39.95 for a single user. I'm not sure about it's performance, as I haven't played with it. But I do have a copy. Perhaps I should take it for a spin and see.
