Thanks to StarForce and the lack of any warning on the box that it has that virus...er....I mean so-called "protection" included with the program, I don't bother buying ANY PC games anymore. I can't be bothered with checking lists or whatever just to see if a game has SF in it or not.

simplest way to to check for a crack first

if you install a starforce game you just apply the crack

if u do it without restarting ot executing the games the drivers wont install

which is ofcourse good.

depends if the crack is a real crack, or a workaround within the starforce code (in which case starforce is still present..)
