Will install of CD affect games in progress?

What is the security based on, file location, file dates, size, or modification?

Would disk defragging cause any problems for the security?

Would over-writing the files cause a security problem even if the OOB files were unchanged as original?

I ask, because I'd like to know. It seems like a lot of work to have to play between two installs and then remember which install is for which game!

1) Don't install or change anything to do with your installation if you do not want your secure PBEM games trashed. Finish (or abandon) your in-progress PBEM games first.

2) Alternately - install to a completely new folder, and patch up while playing your PBEM games in the old install. IF you know exactly what you are doing and you need the new version in the meantime.

3) Security details are not end-user information, ever. Not open for discussion.
