Doug: Well... I have to negotiate

. First of all you are right about SafeDisc, but... this thread discuss StarForce malfunctions. Besides, as far as I know, SafeDisc is the most compatible CD protection on the market.
"All CD copy protections install device drivers now - none of them warn the user about it."
I would rather say:
almost all CD protections use device drivers nowadays (for instance: look at hxxp://www.softlock.net - they don't use device drivers, also there are two other which don't use) - none of them warn the user about it - that's right.
Seyedorf: DPM? I am not in any way CD protection specialist but I thought it was emulated already... like twin sectors did. Please attach some more informations if you can.
Regards.
