Starforce is the great Satan.

It is effectively a virsu, and if it detects something "wrong" (Such as having the wrong make of DVD drive), it basically screws your PC up.

I wonder why starforce comes with DEMO versions of some games? I can understand the reason for full games but even some demo versions contain starforce!

The worst thing is that isnt even effective. I know people who get around it like any other protection.

Thank God for EFF.

That's because Starforce has to be coded into the actually game code for it to work instead of being added to the *.exe like more other protections. I could go into detail why but I just don't feel like it. If you want to know more about how SF works google it.
