(See Rob's December 12 Sony's Rootkit article). The software would load onto a person's hard drive when an XCP protected audio CD was inserted into their PC. The purpose of the software was to limit the number of copies that CD owners could make. The technology used rootkit hiding techniques that could be used by other hackers to enter a PC without the owner's permission. As a result of the pressure from the media and consumers, Sony has stopped distributing and using the XCP technology."}
