Cade Fasset at PC Advisor writes about his recent run-in with spyware.
Because of the battery drain caused by spinning the CD/DVD drive, and also because lugging around a stack of game discs in my briefcase is not very appealing for several reasons, I often go out on the web and download ‘cracks’ for my games to bypass the CD checks. I should say now that every game I play is legally purchased and owned by me, and is installed only on my computer. I only bypass the CD to save battery life and to avoid having to take my discs everywhere.
