After installing the 1.13 patch on my system I've noticed an increased memory consumption on my system, also I'm unable to open my cd tray without rebooting first.
The problem is that if you launch TFT 1.13 it installs a new driver on your system without asking you!
The system driver will be installed to C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Local Settings\Temp\
The driver will use different file name, as of know I know about lredbooo.sys and kbeepm.sys (maybe random filenames);
file size is exactly 29696 bytes and most likely dated sometime 2002.
Until now I though tactics like different file names and the invalid timestamp of the file were only used by viruses and trojans.
In some contries you even get legal issues if you install system drivers without asking the user.
The new driver is part of the new Securom version.
Now my question(s) to Blizzard:
Your game requires a CD key to play online, but why do you still cheat honest customers by using copy-protection tools which are known to cause problems? This latest version of Securom severely affects the security and stability of any system.
Do you really think it is right to install a device driver for a simple game? In the next version of the game, will it reformat my hard disk before I can play? Sounds harsh, but it's the same principle! As long as you install stuff on other computers that is potentially dangerous (with asking or not);
you're almost on the same level as a virus or trojan writer.
Please think about it, this is a very serious matter which should not be put aside quickly. And please show it to your managers as well.
