neither the disk version or the stupid download manager have suckrot.
Thank you, much appreciated. Assuming I am not missing some subtle subtext that means "OMG !I HAZ NO IDEEAZ!!"

Yes it is. And this thread is redundant.
Did you, perhaps, reply to the wrong thread? Or do you simply *enjoy* using terrible grammar and not *linking* to the original thread that would render this one redundant?
I'm 99% percent sure that the "OFFICIAL REAL COMPLETE" version of TS3 has Securom. Unless they had some corporate spies switch out the disks worldwide.
Actually, the largest thread on here touches on the issue multiple times, and Pescado even explains the fact on the first post.
Dureth:
Ah, perhaps I misread it- it was my understanding that Pescado had the *downloadable* version, which even EA admits has SecuRom. I don't recall seeing any confirmation of the hard disc having it- only that everything thinks it doesn't. Well, that's why I asked for confirmation- I will restate:
Does anybody *with the hard disc* have the ability to confirm whether it does or does not have Securom? I don't want probabilities- I want first-hand knowledge or links to the same.
Sleepycat:
My information comes from someone who got her copy on Saturday. After installing she ran the game from the launcher and the disk and then checked for suckrot (more then once to be sure), it was not to be found. She then installed the stupid download manager and checked again for suckrot and again suckrot was not on her computer. She is one of the people who had massive problems due to suckrot before and has removed it from a dozen computers, so I will take her word for it.
Zazazu:
No, MisterLeaf. First version, one that is verified pre-Gold, had SecuROM. Second version, one that is most likely the Gold, did not. Current EADM has been verified to not have SecuROM. Launcher program on the second most-likely-Gold version does not have SecuROM. Pescado has stated that the Sims3Store objects have some sort of potentially malicious/extra unknown coding to them that he is currently investigating.
What remains to be seen is if the disc version people purchase tomorrow does, or if the digital download gotten tomorrow does.
ETA: See Sleepycat.
Mire Krisma:
Well, there you have it. I'm surprised EA would change that, but it does make me glad.
