Re: OT: SPYWARE/TROJAN and Off Topic!
Let me see if I understand this. I'm probably not as computer-savy as the rest of you and I'm not a conspiracy theorist. But something here doesn't add up.
If Norfleet is correct, the new patch...and I'm still quite happy with 2.06...gets in touch with either an Illwinter or Shrapnel server...looks like Illwinter from Gandalf's Posts...whether in SP or in MP mode.
Yet Kristoffer O posted:

If it's a MP CD-key check, why is it contacting another server in SP mode? Or is this a "bug?"
I for one would have nothing against a subroutine that contacted a vendor server prior to playing a MP game to verify there are independent copies of the game playing in MP mode. But...correct me if I'm wrong...it's doing it in SP mode too?
