Of course, Sony's willing partner-in-crime and enabler-of-all-things-unholy is just as culpable for SecuROM; Microsoft![/quote] I could go into a lot of technical details about how wrong you are about SucuRom here - and about SBlade, who has been investigating SucuRom for awhile now - how it can destroy CD-DVD drives. I, like many thousands of customers, have been "bitten" by SucuRom before. That you haven't [b]yet[/b] is meaningless - the more PC games that you play, the greater the risk that eventually you will be affected. It is just a matter of time. I used to think much as you do - SucuRom :confused: It has never caused me any problems...but then one day it did (with NWN2) and for 3 weeks I could not play a game that I had paid for at all, until a patch came out eliminating the problem for me. Had that patch not come out (and it was not brought out by Sony, btw), I would have been stuck with a rather expensive piece of plastic. You don't think SucuRom is affecting your PC? Try running Processor Explorer (a better Task Manager than the windows version) and boot up a SucuRom-ridden DVD of your choice. It will not run as long as Processor Explorer is active. Try Alcohol X% (doesn't matter which version) or any number of programs that create virtual drives. So now you have Sony telling you what programs you are not allowed to run on your PC when you want to play games! The real nasty "suprise" is whyt it can do physically to your CD/DVD drive, however. And yes, this stuff is documented (though Sony is doing everything it can to keep this stuff out of the limelight - like hitting anyone trying to publish it with a lawsuit immediately). If you want to know just how insidious SucuRom is, I can put you in contact with SBlade and I am sure he will be able to provide you with all the proof you will ever need.
