Subject: 'tainting kernel' problem in linux-2.4.18

Hi,

 I am trying LKM with linux-2.4.18. I have a problem
here. When I load the module using 'insmod' command,
module gets loaded but I get following error

------------------------------------------------------
/sbin/insmod ./hello.o
Warning: loading ./hello.o will taint the kernel: no
license
  See http://www.tux.org/lkml/#export-tainted for
information about tainted modules
Module hello loaded, with warnings
----------------------------------------------------

Can anyone tell me why I am getting this problem and
what is the impact of this error while module is
running in kernel. 

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Deepika
