No, way it is not by any means illegal to listen to cordless phone
conversations, and as a matter of fact is not even against the law
(In Australia) to monitor Police\Ambulance\Fire Communications via
any Type of Radio transmission. However I am not certian about other
countries. 
 AU> they would have  made it illegal to have the freq's programed into a
 AU> scanner. You see they want  pacify those who wanted the scanner
 AU> enthusiast stopped but not enough to  put teeth in the law. So the
 AU> passed some more feel good legislation that made  bad law.
