My primary intention was to warn people of installing the original 1.0 release, as there are still a few copies floating around on eBay, bargain bins and flea markets in Europe.

Most likely, the StarForce Removal Tool was patched into the 1.10 version. A few publishers were forced to deactivate SF after discovering that it was initially incompatible with Windows Vista, and incorporated the tool into subsequent patches (i.e. Codename: Panzers I & II).

The Anti-StarForce Forum is unfortunately down now, but it contained numerous reports by programmers who dissected SF and the removal tool (developed and distributed courtesy of StarForce, btw). The contention was a general mistrust towards post-install removal vs. complete omission, notably the inherent danger posed by dormant components still residing on the system. This 'install, then deactivate' process is possibly also employed in the patched 1.10 version of "The Fall".

EDIT: my apologies for side-tracking the modding discussion. As a redeeming factor, I'll mention that I bought this game when it was originally released many years ago. I enjoyed playing it at first, but stopped after running into a wall of bugs. Hopefully these issues were remedied in the latest patch. It's rumoured that the authors actually contacted someone from the original Fallout dev team for ideas and programmed a few FO references into the game as well.
