FOUND ON BBS - Legality Issues
The link below contains a tool which removes SecuROM except it's digital rights management data:
http://www.securom.com/support/SecuROM_Uninstaller.zip
Please download it, extract the application file and follow the instructions below:
- The easiest way of using this tool is to copy the SecuROM_Uninstaller.exe file into your C:\ directory.
- Open the Windows command box by pressing and selecting the option. Now type 'cmd' (without 's) and press on the keyboard.
- Type: 'cd\' (without 's) and press on the keyboard.
- Please type now: SecuROM_Uninstaller.exe /uninstal
- A dialog box will appear. To start the SecuROM uninstallation, press the button.
Please understand that any application that uses SecuROM will rebuild these files and folders with future launches.

You didn't read that thread properly - right after that email you quoted comes this:

Don't bother wasting your time, this did NOT work. But right there in that email, they admit Securom is "digital right management data" Interesting.

Not sure if this was posted yet or not, but I just saw this at snootysims about SecuROM.
The Sims2.com has updated with a much needed response to the SecuROM issue. They opened a separate BBS section and also MaxoidViolet wrote a large blog update on the issue.
Check it here: Securom BBS section - MaxoidViolet blog

Just for the record, Will Wright is in no manner whatsoever affiliated with the managerial operations of Electronic Arts or its former sub-division Maxis. He sold Maxis to EA in 1997, and went to work as an independent software developer with a "strong relationship" with EA.
for the full scoop of poop on how EA lied to you for the past 10 years read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxis
