Memory leak?
miramis:
I outright crashed the other night because it ran out of memory, only 32mb (either 32mb or 64mb) left out of 2 Gigabytes :-\ I was trying to get all the townies to show up on the lot though, but it's never crashed like that in previous expansions. Perhaps that particular option on the npc & townie maker (which looks like the repo mans gun now) is bugged.

I have noticed more audio errors, especially while hoods and lots are loading -- the sound skips, or 'hiccups' while the loading screen is visible. Fortunately it doesn't crash, but it's annoying.
(I have an ATI card, FYI, and a Audigy 4 sound card.)
I thought it was my grampa of a computer that was at fault. EA has us well brainwashed, have they not? I have the same problem to the point that I keep thinking the game will crash to desktop any second now. I have an ATI Radeon 9600 - nothing to brag about, but no slouch either.
What if someone installed BV onto a peripheral hard-drive? One that gets plugged into a bus-port. Would that still sneak the SecuRom malware into the main CPU?

Once you run bon voyage or any app that contains securom, it'll have access to windows registery, at which point it'll do whatever it wants to do. Theres also a good chance that it uses window environment variables %program files% ??? to install it's stuff. The only way I know offhand to stop this is install it with a limited accounted and i'm sure they know how to cheat around that. >:(
BTW you mean main hard drive?
