One of my co-MVPs pointed out to a recommendation from EA on one of their latest patch, "to uninstall a critical security patch" to get their game to run.

This is so surprising that I read the post multiple times, before I could believe it and this is in the readme of a recent patch!!

I can understand if your program is broken due to a security patch. You then go ahead and try and fix your application so as to work with that and then release a patch. But to release a patch and recommend users to uninstall a security patch for it is work, is surely not acceptable at all.

(Update: Looks like MS has has released a hotfix that makes it work with the game now)
