@LOXHAZARD
Thx man your explanation was perfect. I've downloaded and read, but there's still something that I did not undaztood at all. You said they give you a key created by special starforce algorytyhms using the classical serial number and you hardware code. Serial number is relatively easy to obtain (there is a keygen for every game created), hardware code dunno, if they decrypt starforce algorhytms the job should be done, am I right? Please be patient I've a brain rpm limitator

However I think that the starting point for developing protections should be the necessity not to create probs for legal customers, and not to block piracy at any cost. Unfortunately this isn't possible 'cause piracy is not just a technical prob, but a cultural (and economic) one. E.G. in Italy there are a lot of sites which provide links to warez games, but only if they cost over 30 euros. THIS IS NOT to justify piracy, but there is some kind of (not sufficient anyway) respect for developers and softcos which keep prices low. On the other hand, I see that, with money, softcos are losing their respect for the customers; all of them stupid producers should remember that they have money to produce games until people BUY them, and even if thx

to piracy lots of them don't buy games anymore, the few (?????????) who remained honest are slowly losing the hope to see again a NORMAL game, a game which can be installed, run, uninstalled and, why not, backed up and then thrown through the window without stuckin' into some issues with their pc.
Sorry for this waste of words, I go back playin' Onimusha 3 ORIGINAL on my PS2, payed 24 euros new and after only 3 months from the sorting day (do U now platinum gamez?

). Hope not to see some hidden and infecting drivers also there
