I've read where C-Dilla actually disables your CD burner on occassion when its copy protection routine kicks in and thinks you're burning pirated software

As long as it knows its victim is pirating software, I've no problem with that. However, I do -- as much as possible -- burn a single working copy of my kids' games CDs. I give it to them, and I stash the original away for safekeeping, in case they should mishandle and damage the working copy. It hasn't happened yet, but I refuse to lose software I paid for, due to mishandling the CD. If that violates the license agreement, so be it.

I'd guess the popular spyware spies -- AdAware is the one I can think of at the moment; supposedly, there's a better one -- will find and kill C-Dilla.

I just checked SpyBot Search & Destroy. Under Excludes/Products/Spybots.spi they include CDilla. So you can search and destroy it by using that program.
