completely clean install opportunity - What would you do?

<< < (3/3)

Annette:
I'm getting a brand new computer, so I'd like to keep it as clean as possible. I guess the easiest way is to open all the pre BV ep's and then just install all the others until I get to M&G. I am too lazy to put in no-cd cracks and then take them out again. I am now on a quest to find no-cd cracks for my other games, just in case they have SecuRom on them too. Most are probably too old but I may as well be careful.

Daemon-tools site has a game database listing the piracy protection on many games, you could start there, although, using a no-cd on everything has benefits other than avoiding Securom. Watch out for anything with Starforce, it's just as bad as Securom.

J. M. Pescado:
Actually, as of late, SecuROM is worse. At least Starforce has never actually been implicated in phoning home. Starforce is an extremely draconian protection that will damage your computer to perform its listed function. SecuROM will do all this, AND it will secretly SPY for its masters!
