CloneCD is a very common software piracy tool, and I suspect Ubi Soft has a list of programs similar to CloneCD that they check for. Are you certain that the program was not loaded at all? You might be surprised at what programs will automatically run when you launch Windows. You might want to check the Properties for CloneCD to make sure that there isn't anything watching your CD drives for events such as inserting/removing CDs. jm
