The funny thing is that now the people at wargaming and dreamcatcher are saying star force doesn't cause problems.

I wonder what it will take to make them admit that they are screwing over there customers.

The thing that really upsets me is the installation of components other than implictly advertised or expressly disclosed on either the packaging or in the EULA. I thought I was installing a game and only a game. Seems to me that the failure to disclose the Start Force third party component is negligent. I do not like having background processes (or an intercept driver) installed, and especially having those background processes installed in such a way as to be not immediately aparent or perceptable. The way those device drivers were installed was invasive. I felt the same way after installing HalfLife 2 and seeing how the steam client worked. At least Vivendi/Valve put an icon in the system tray to indicate a running process. At least Vivendi/Valve implemented their own protection scheme.
