Fixed SecuROM 7.31 Blacklist of Y.A.S.U.
Added Intelligent SafeDisc 4.x Anti-Blacklist(s), not really required but it works.
Added various new Commandline Parameters (check above for info).
Modified commandline interpretation, if Y.A.S.U is already active you can pass additional
commands to it (i.e. Enable or Disable Anti-Blacklist(s) without exiting/restarting Y.A.S.U).
Added system permission check(s), this will check if Y.A.S.U has the required permissions to
run effectively on your system (can be disabled via parameters but not recommended).
When adding Y.A.S.U to the system start up (-a) the default parameters are "-s -c",
there is an easy way to overwrite the start up parameters (without Regedit), when using "-a"
add the parameters that you would like Y.A.S.U to start with (i.e. "YASU.exe -a -s -c -nosd"
OR "YASU.exe -a -s -c -nosdi -nosr"), ONLY "-s, -c, -nosd, nosdi, -nosr, -nopc" can be added
to start up parameters, additional parameters will be removed.
Added a Log, so now you can see what Y.A.S.U is doing, the log can also be saved/cleared via
mouse (right click).
*NOTES: Y.A.S.U can only be terminated via the system tray icon (right click) alternativly you
can use "yasu.exe -x" from the command prompt.
