This will almost certainly vary by jurisdiction. In England and Wales at least 
(as far as I understand it) no code is "unlicensed" - copyright is automatic 
and there is just an implicit default licence which is restrictive (i.e. you 
can't copy it). This is why you should always stick a licence on your code, 
especially if you don't care who uses it ;-)

Contacting the author is the best way to go.

HTH,

Pete.
