yah! i have seen this problem cropping up more than you would think on tech support sites for newly released games in the last half a year or so.
myst3, por2, arcanum are just a few of the most recent ones...
(of course, ubisoft tech support is horrible, as it's monitored by mail bots and i think you have to be a close friend of god to get to even lvl 2 tech with them!
