How to get rid of SecuRom, NOW
AzemOcram:
I personally despise SecuRom but I have not had any problems with Tagés. I am in the middle of upgrading my PC so I must check how everything works after I install The Sims 2 and all of its expansion packs.
MegatronsPet:
Stupid question that no one [I think] has come up with yet:
Can running BS and/or SimPE (w/ or w/o crack present) trigger SecuROM install? I know they load game stuff somehow or other, but wasn't sure whether the .exe gets called in the process.

To my knowledge, no, BS has it's own .exe and Simpe scans .package files in the core folders. If you want to check what exactly is called when they run, you can get a program called Process Monitor and configure it to the Simpe.exe and the bodyshop.exes.

Thank you! Makes sense, of course :D

Dumb question here, and I don't even know if anyone comes by here anymore but, I just got a new computer and reinstalled the Sims 2. I installed each ep and sp one right after another without playing the game first. I then got a no-cd crack for M&G stuff and loaded the game using that. I assumed I would have secuROM, but none of the searches are turning anything up. Is this because I didn't launch the game using the regular .exe? Or should I expect to be finding something? Thanks if anyone stumbles across this!
