Warez announcement for NR2002 gets rebuffed
A poster announced that a pirated copy of NR2002 was circulating, and regulars told him to go away, noting online play needs a legitimate copy. The thread moved on to whether publishers could detect pirated or no-CD copies remotely, and whether doing so would be legal.
Automated summary.
Lame!

Seriously. Last night here in Australia there was a show on the tele
with a computer whiz showing how easy it was for any hacker, etc to have
unlimited access to anyone's computer on the net. Open and close the CD
Drive, open and view any folder, etc. It may not be legal for software
houses or Piracy Police to do this but how would anyone know? Just
follow it up with a "random" inspection of someone's computer. Or maybe
just do a delete/C: for them? hehehehehehehe

Good point. Where there's a will there's a way! :) Off the top of my
head, how about an in game program that knows if a certain file has been
sent across the net (one that never would be for reasons other than
piracy). I'd be surprised if there was no way to tell whether a file had
been copied from a CD or not. One with a unique serial number at that?

Most warez uses totally different setup routines. The program's root
directory will have files the *real* program doesn't. It will also be
lacking some files the real program has. It would be easy to
differentiate.

Yes. Allmost allways it's only the (mainprogram).exe file that is
different in a warez version. They hack that exe file to bypass any
copy protections. Exactly the same as those no-cd patches actually.
There are 2 sorts of warez versions btw:
Rips - To keep the download small intro movies, music etc have been
ripped. Often the music and movies can be downloaded as addons again.
Iso's - Complete backup of cd's, often provided with a hacked exe file
to bypass the copy protection.

Uh. If you administer your operating systems correctly, it is
impossible to do what you're describing. A properly administered
Windows machine should not be accepting TCP or UDP connections on any
port.
As far as piracy goes, I don't see why anyone would want an illegal
copy of N2002 since it's useless online (all it takes is one person to
give papy the serial and no more sierra.com for you).

How do I disable that?

So, based on the hypothetical situation posed: Someone could have bought a

hacks into his computer, sees the modified .exe file, and erases his hard

I believe it's legally forbidden to modify (and thus use) the exe
file. So.. you're gonna lose that lawsuit :)

Um. No.
You'd win easily as it is only illegal to modify your files in the
dreams of software companies.
Can't believe the fucking corporate lackies who seem to believe that,
no matter what, the consumer should just fuck off.

that lawsuit regardless of what they find.

You have one of the newer v.92 modems. Is it made by USR? If it is you
should have got a utility to install that allows you to change that option.
v.92 modems allow you to stay conected to the internet while accepting an
incoming call, but your ISP has to be setup to the v.92 standard for it to
function correctly.
