I just read this article and i have to say Im pissed now. How the hell does this company get away with illigaly installing software that could compromize the security of my system and is concided by ALL security firms to be a hacking and virus tool, as part of their DRM stratagy. This is unaceptable Sony needs to be boycotted and sued for this action. They are for all intensive perpouses installing a virus on my system not telling me and asuming that because im just some dumb user i will never notice. God im so mad right now i think im going to fissile!

I saw that on the inquirer yesterday. well, I guess we will have to be start using pirated software - those have no viruses in them, and at least are free if they do
