First, can uprez software, such as Genuine Fractals and Q-Image, increase resolution of our photos on DPC to produces files that would print out high quality photographs? |
Possibly, depending on the initial image, compression, and size of the target print.

If so, then what's to stop someone from stealing our photos and using this software in such a manner and selling these prints in some far off place? |
Nothing except that there are easier targets elsewhere (larger images, for example)

Secondly, could it conceivably be argued, say in court, that since the interpolation these programs perfom add pixels non-existent in the original file, that the copyright of the given image does not apply to the upsampled one? |
Sure it could. It could be argued in court that pigs can fly, too. Neither argument would be likely to be successful.
