Has SecuROM messed up your computer? Or maybe, you never even know that "The Sims" series uses SecuROM? Let us know either way. SecuROM is suppose to stop a game from being copied, not make it harder for legal owners to play games. Share Your Experience

Well, looks like I'm going to have to give up on the Sims altogether. I love Sims, but this is just too much. I did not have many problems with Securom, but then again all you have to do is buy a specific expansion pack that can open up a world of trouble. I have a program that takes Securom off, but as a college student, buying any EA game with Securom on it is a big risk to the investment of my laptop. I so want to get the game though. I guess I will wait for the reviews and see what happens. If the majority of people state it is a fail, then I will risk it.
