Grand Theft Auto IV on PC - Securerom Problems?

So, finally GTA IV is available for PC. So I happily pick it up, install it, and get a message
Spoiler:

Das Sicherheitsmodul konnte nicht ordnungsgemäß aktiviert werden.
Das Programm kann nicht ausgeführt werden (6000).

that apparently indicates that SecureRom is messing with me and blocks me from using GTA IV.

Anyone had this problem and found a fix? (Keep EN World rules in mind - nothing illegal. And of course, just giving the game back to where I bought it is an option, but one I don't particularly like, because I want to play the game, not my money *insert expletive here*!)



Did I mention I HATE intrusive copy-protection schemes that fail to work? I don't want to be a software pirate! I have enough money to spend on games, and I want to support the guys making good games! Grrrrr....
