oooh, I had no idea there were exception lists in scanner!

Thank you!

I've played Sims2 with cracked .exe files to avoid SecuRom. I was busy with other games last year, but saw my virus program suddenly detect a virus in the M&G cracked exe and delete it some months ago. I figured I'd fix whatever it was when I got back to playing.

Now that I'd like to play again, I tried downloading a new cracked .exe, but each and every one from different sources makes my Antivirus Program (Avira AntiVir Personal) scream that it contains a Trojan and delete it. I even tried copying over the cracked .exe from a backup that is from this computer which has previously worked with no probem (while using the same AV Program), but Avira now insists it's malware.

I am a bit leery of installing new antivirus protection for just this issue (especially since I don't know if using a different program will fix this), but I really want to play Sims2 again...

Is there a way to avoid SecuRom without using a cracked .exe file?

I have a lot of Sunair's hair, properly binned and ages removed (did them by hand, not with the binning tool). I can send them when I get home.

oh, that *is* cool. Must try when I get home. Thank you!

Insim.net has a quite a few sims based on the bodybuilder meshes, and there's at least one person (of course, name escapes me now, and I'm at work, so I can't search) who makes rather manly sims, and even had an awkward middle-aged guy who'd gotten rather thick in the middle and has a red nose from drinking too much.

I usually set them to an appropriate age for whatever job-level they hold.

it's not so much that I want to get off to watching sims wank, but it's a matter of realism. People wank. And I have one or two sims who're single and/or pervy, and for whom it's in character. And hey, think of all the shy Romance sims!

(actually, someone should make a "have online sex" modded computer that fills the "have woohoo" want, for those Romance sims who're married with a family and need a quick way to have some affairs)
