What is starforce?

On 30th January 2006 Boing Boing, a popular weblog, labeled StarForce as malware, alleging several problems associated with the protection system, including disk drive performance degradation, weakening of operating system security and stability. A day later on 31 January 2006 Boing Boing received an email from StarForce, threatening legal action and stating that the article was "full of insults, lies, false accusations and rumors". CNET also ran a similar story, and has received similar email. However, Protection Technologies has never proven these claims are false.

On 5th March 2006, a StarForce employee posted a link [5] to an illegal download source of Galactic Civilizations 2, a game developed by StarDock which does not use mandatory copy protection. StarForce later issued an apology for this act [6], after it received a great deal of attention on the Internet.
