Hi, i gave up on games a long time a ago but just wanted to let everyone know that Sporn on PC has a virus that beds itself onto you computer, i dont know much about it but it seems to watch your comuter and give back info to EA even if you try and remove the program form the computer itself

BEWARE!!!

Its an online check thing, that makes sure that each copy of the game can only be installed 3 times max (not sure if it counts reinstall as one), after you have used up 3 attempts you have to phone EA to get a new key.

I would assume that the "virus" you are talking about is this program that monitors this.

Ironically, if you get the hacked version, that program is removed by the hackers.

BTW nearly all of EA's latest games have this online check bit, that limits each key to a certain # of install.

Probably cracked already, Reloaded have already released the game as an image + the crack on torrent sites.

I found most of the new (& up coming games) from EA all have this sort of protection. like the new crysis expansion & red alert 3.

Great job EA following Microsoft's gay DRM method = I'm never buying a game with such protection, locking your key for a limit # of installs is just beyond gay. :P

    • lol the 2nd one boss, thank you for pointing this out. I feel as i spend more time here this intro message is some thing i will always make me laugh and shake my head at. Perfect Intro:  I have the vehicle  
    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
