but it is indeed possible, isnt it ?
The original exe remains the same, if protected w/ Securom or SF.
Oh, well. I assume these days the exes are not always fully unpacked, => original exe, but they are "fixed", means somwhow changing the exe to start and unpack itself even though theres no CD inside.
Well, that makes sense, indeed. It will load as SD protected, fixed exe (for example), so it will handle things the way, SD would do.
If you would place this exe in a directory of an SF proteted game and run it, it wouldnt work...
