DRM measure distributed with EA games. Breaks things, often including the games it's supposed to protect. Worthless but necessary garbage like everything EA does.

I know that when I am trying to run The Sims 2 - Open for Business (with university and nightlife also installed), that when I launch the program it does the following: 1.) the game starts loading normally. 2.) you see the EA logo normally 3.) you see the MAXIS logo normally 4.) the intro plays 5.)at the loading screen: I.) the music plays uninterrupted like nothing is wrong II.) you have full control of the cursor, and the computer is not locked up III.) the game just sits there and does NOTHING. --- Alt+tab out to task manager shows the ~e5.0001 program

This file is copy right protection, NOT the crappy marketing tool EA uses

my games Chessmaster do not start, and computer becomes really slower
   

its bs and hawkeye can suck a mule! This file slows the machine and causes abnormal termination when other processes are running
   

This program is how EA implements copy protection on many of their games. It should slow your computer to a crawl or prevent the game from running if you use a crack. It can also prevent it from running on legal copies on some hardware. It is not harmful, but should only be running when the game is running.

This process is present on Activisions Transformers: The Game. While not dangerous, it appears to cause instability in computers with CD/DVD writer drives and using Virtual CD/DVD drives. This is stated on the game case.
