How would I go about bypassing securom to allow for installation of a game? (lemm.ee)

Got a copy of Borderlands (EU iso) from the r/ROMS megathread and found out there is securom verification (which I have absolutely no experience with) as part of the installation process.

Closest I have found to a solution to bypass so far after some brief searching was one "Generic Securom 7/8 by Virusek" off of the "LOSTFILESARCHIVE" github page, which leads to a 404 page (even on the wayback machine).

Are there any programs or patches you would recommend to bypass this god awful drm?

you may try to find an scene release instead

Have you checked the thread on csrin for a cracked executable?

I didn't think to check there since I thought the executable I'd find would be for the Steam version and ain't sure whether it's even compatible with the physical disc release, but I might just check there.
