--- Comment #3 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net 2011-06-09 14:39:27 CDT --- Hello,
the "Uniloc" DRM protection scheme was actually used in a small number of games and found too intrusive/unstable on Windows/PC platforms. As comment #2 says, due to lots of customer complaints this DRM was removed by game publishers in subsequent patch releases. The usage was very limited and the activation servers are most likely not alive anymore .. IMHO waste of time.
Looking at the profile, patent filings and who they sued -> patent troll Tempted to close this ... but well.

--- Comment #5 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2013-11-13 16:52:44 CST --- This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 2 years. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.6 or newer) wine? If so, please attach the terminal output in 1.7.6 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).
