Macrovision always blacklist such programs as PlayBackup, Insektors, and Daemon Tools as they can emulate their protection. Then the authors of these programs update their programs to get round the blacklisting. It's an everlasting and childish circle and they constantly blacklist etc. I find it appauling that they will stop you playing your ORIGINAL games just because there is a certain program on your computer. After paying £30 plus for a game, then stop you from f**king playing it!!!!! I'm not sure on the legality of this - surely someone must take some action as some point.

Uninstalling Playbackup, Insektors, and Daemon Tools worked for me, but if it doesn't, do as pondunkiller suggests with the registry.
