The only people who should be concerned about the file are the people who have something to hide.

You honestly don't trust the people that have built this server from nothing and are providing it for free to you? I think that says something about you, not the people who run the server.

And hey, maybe that idea shows how ignorant and or foolish I am. Whatever.

There's no such thing as having too little trust in people on the internet.

Not saying that I don't trust Rogean and crew. Just saying that it's never a bad idea to be a bit skeptical of people on the internet that you really know nothing about.

Really? Access to your system, the ability to read any file for a video game? Yeah, it sure says something about me when I have issues giving a couple of guys running a quasi-legal emulated server complete access to my system. It says I'm not an idiot.

For the record I am a computer software engineer.

I posted this once put ill post it again:

IMHO this could be a potential for legal privacy concerns or even illegal wiretapping. If you value your financial and other personal information I wouldn't run these dll's without some kind of privacy statement or a legal binding contract that holds them responsible for potential malicious intent.

This is a huge personal security and or legal nightmare. You can say "well then don't play" but the truth is I can't trust this code thats getting executed and neither should you and the fact that it wasn't explained in detail in the release notes and the source isn't offered makes it border line coercion.

While this might have caught cheaters i think this was the total wrong approach to take and frankly irresponsible from a computer security stand point.

Sounds like a top notch scam to me. Give you something you really want for free, then slip files onto your computer after gaining your trust. Then stealing all your information for various things like your bank account.

That doesn't seem at all plausible?

EDIT: I'm not saying that's what they are doing. But its possible.

Same thought crossed my mind rofl

I mean, I don't AT ALL think that's what they're doing. Not even a tiny bit. But it would be a pretty genius scam if it was pulled off, lol
