Does SecuROM™ change settings in my firewall?
No, SecuROM™ makes no setting changes to any firewall program(s), or any software for that matter. If a SecuROM™ protected application is configured to require an online authentication, firewalls will notice this process and will inform the user that an internet connection is being requested. Such standard firewall messages do not mean that SecuROM™ is opening a network port on the users PC for incoming network connections.
