What crap. Take your money elsewhere -- it got Intuit's attention in a hurry when TurboTax's crazy boot sector hijacking copy protection got publicized and people started switching.
I thought we got over this kind of nonsense after the days when Lotus required a run-time floppy.
Good thing I don't play games. What a boatload of crud you people put up with.
If there were a way to take a chunk of flesh before every game play and verify your DNA, these companies would do it -- and a lot of sheeplike users would comply! (No offense, sheepexplode  .)

If you want to play some games you can always download, besides there is a huge community of cracked servers online.
Spend your money on something worth it

I hope people who buy this software all send nastygrams to the companies about how annoyed they are...
Also, I'd put in lots of tech support help requests for all the side-effects the copy protection has too. |
