Letting it startup when reason does is not the problem, you have to check
if
the service shuts off and stops running after you close reason. Also,
while
reason is running it'll still mess things up; that's where my real problem
is, that the protection stuff slows down the app it's made to protect and
sometimes other running processes as well. Now, to make this clear, I did
notice some weird behaviour that wasn't there before installing reason,
which is when I went looking and found code meeter running on my services.
I
then looked in controll panel and start menu and everywhere else and found
no reference to it, neither was there an option to remove it; keep in mind
that this was after I had removed Reason and all references to
Propellerhead
stuff. This is where my problem is, this is what we consider "malware
behaviour." This is what got Sony in trouble a few years ago with their CD
protection scheme and the small software piece it installed on systems
when
a disc containing this system was played. People didn't know it was being
installed, and neither could they remove it (that part being the worst).
I'm not saying code meeter is necessarily bad for you, though it seems
that
most people who've tried have experienced some issues, but I'm saying that
I
personally don't like any apps that use these weird protection schemes or
programs that interfear with my system in a "malware-like" way.

Subject: [realmusicians] Code Meter and Reason 6
Hey Chris and DJX, Roy says, I've removed the CodeMeter program from the
startup group , and changed its services to start manually , not
automatically , so it doesn't automatically load everytime the system
boots.Unquote.
I've got to learn to try more of these experiments, and not just sit back
and let myself be victimized by software.
What's the worse that could have happened, if that wasn't successful,
Reason
might crash after bootup, like I seem to remember happening to Hypersonic
2
if its SynchroSoft isn't present.
Wow, this could make a real difference to me, not to have little odd
behaveors while Code Meter is running.
I'll remove Code Meter from the Win7 64 machine's startup first, maybe
it'll return to its original quickness.
I still want Reason 6 on a drive by itself, though, just in case.
