How to get rid of SecuRom, NOW
Marhis:
Great, I've found it, at last on the Mac. I'm almost sure it installed with Spore demo.
It's concealed in a system plist (you need a plist editor to check), hidden as well (it's a dot-something). In mine it's .GlobalPreferences.plist, in /Users/<yourloginname>/Library/Preferences. This plist stores some Finder prefs, like iTools username, # of recent documents to list, and so on.
Proof:
Now: does somebody know what do I need to do? Deleting those entries in plist is enough or have I to perform additional stuff?
seelindarun:
Great mac-fu! I have no idea if it would be enough to delete those entries; I didn't install Spore onto any macs, and I'm a little dubious about doing so in order to experiment with you on this. :D However, I'd love to know how this turns out.

Ok, I downloaded regdelnull and typed in the command and got an error. So I downloaded devlin, browsed to the appropriate place; no securom was found. So I did a search of my entire C drive for securom: NOTHING! However it is in the registry. Can I delete the registry keys?
Callista:
I'm using a no-CD for Pets, because SecuROM came with Sims 2 Deluxe (base game/NL). I have Uni and Pets now. I'm about to install Seasons and OFB EPs. Should I do anything other than installing the new EPs? I'm guessing that this will make Seasons my latest EP, meaning I should be using a no-CD for that one, rather than for Pets; so I guess that means changing the Pets no-CD back to the regular file, right?
tunaisafish:
Yes - install the no-cd for your latest ep
No - the old pets .exe file does not need replacing back to the original.
