I'll pay for PT3 just as I paid for PT and PAHUD. I won't, however, allow programs access into my computer if it can be helped. Read Stellarwind's comments about the so-called rakeback calculator.

Others more knowledgable can comment, but it is my understanding all these so called copy protections can be circumvented anyway and that most likely includes something that connects to a registration server. Sounds to me like that was already hinted at earlier in the thread. So the only ones that are suffering a risk from some malware are the legal users and I grit my teeth every time my firewall alerts me PAHUD is transmitting info.
