    Well fuck, these trained scientists/doctors would never give monkeys the vaccine then see if it protects from the known strains of the the full virus.

    I'm not a complete asshole, yet eve is rather fun.

    Of course IM sure that more than one miner ,hauler ,or logistics thinks I'm an asshole. But that what you get for being in an alliance involved in the current game wide war.

    I do enjoy killing pirates though.

    The real system does work for catching people who are mass producing bootlegs, you know the folks who are actually able to hurt respective industries in a noticeable fashion. Not the guys who sell bootlegs on the street or the guys who take the shaky camcorder into the theater, the real bootleggers. The issue is, there are alot of them, it takes time to take them down, with a small amount of starting cash its not hard to do it, and there are a lot of them in places where the law isn't that clear.

    It was bad syntax on the installer. There is a file in the game directory called boot.ini. The patch is trying to uninstall that.

    installer dialog

    C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE
    deleting \boot.ini
    fill in the rest of the file loads past this.

    I think they assumed everything would be done in the eve directory.
