And the last time I formatted I made a copy of the files on DVD's using the Steam incorparated backup utility, and whoopee....they didnt work....

297362 2006-04-26 21:19:00 Hi guys, this is interesting, however it is the best safe guard going to prevent pirate installations as each game sold is registried to an account. To activate the program file need decryption.!
In fact I have seen it installed and played without needing Steam ata ll. So much for that anti-pirarcy idea.
It also degrades the performance.
