Interesting : This is post number 666 from you by now.
So far, I had no problems with DRMs- only that older Securom versions appear to be incompatible with newer ones.
Plus : Here we have a law (as far as I know) that the box must describe correctly the "contents" (I don't know how far this ggoes, since I'm not a lawyer), so a game like Silent Hunter should be advertised as you describe it - otherwise it would be a money-back thing, because they didn't explain *everything* to the customer on the box.
This is at least how I understood it.
By the way, you write :
How you will call a program that insta gets access to the highest factions of your O/S & sets itself to bypass firewall ? (securom)
Then programs like Skype are virii, too, because they actually do "install" their own exception rules into the Microsoft Firewall.
There ARE programs and games which do this. Unwanted, unasked.
Let me take a look into my Microsoft Firewall.
It lists among the exceptions which I guess come from the system the following exception rules :
- EA Battle Of Middlearth (or how it is called in English language)
- Easyshare 8belongs to my digital camers)
- SiSoftware Deployment Agend (I think SiSoft's benchmarking & information program called "Sandra" is relatively well known)
- SiSoft Sandra Agent Service
- Kaspersky AV Scanner (I had it ONCE … but that's long ago. Why is this exception rule still there ?)
Skype is reported by my trusted computing magazine to do its own exception rules as well, as the Windows Media Player (UPNP Network).
So, this shouldn't be, but these pograms are still no virii.
Besides: horseshit is known to be an excellent fertilizer for plants. I know that some people even collect it and place it under their plants, REAL gardeners !
