Thanks Sheldon - I've got to say though, that while its a price I'd pay 
for games in the league of Medieval assuming there's no harm done, given 
the option, there's no way I'd want a company to install stuff on my pc 
that I then couldn't remove. I'm probably a bit more old-fashioned than 
most on this, and maybe it a bit of an Amiga thing, but I just feel that 
my computer is just that, my computer - and should be respected as such.

This feels like abuse to me.

Darn, there I was thinking I was all mellow about it, and clearly I'm 
not.  :)
