You don't have a clue what you are talking about, it doesn't need any special access privileges. It will have the same permissions as the user who started it. Guess what, you have the permission to access that file.

This is true, but all outbound communications need to be cleared regardless, this is why it asks you to allow access when you first start the game. BUT this only applies to the game. If it tries this with any other program, it should gain your AV's attention rather quickly.

FINALLY.

I've been waiting for this.

Oh goody.

Did you know you fucking can't? C# and Python are both programming languages that work and compile by entirely different methods. But yeah other than that they're completely identical :v.

Sound dumb? It should.

It does because it's completely irrelevant.

There is no bit of information in your links or in ANY of your posts that implies you can do that. That an .exe and a .dll have functional similarities is irrelevant. Next you'll you tell me I can run programs by clicking on a .dll file.

I said if the DLL is loaded then it has an entry point called DLL main. Soooo... the qualifier there is IF it's loaded.... it's functionally equivalent... I never claimed anything else. Can you connect the dots?

Again, similarities are irrelevant here. They both have their uses and functions, and a .dll can't be used for malicious purposes without causing your AV programs to go ballistic.

You have a lot of faith in your AV programs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So for the context of this thread, you're not only full of shit, but just flinging around your vague understanding of file extensions and what they mean in an attempt to save face. I leave you to double back over your sources to figure out why. QED indeed you actual moron.

The funniest thing is this is exactly what you're doing! lol. The only thing you've done that demonstrates anything beyond a vague understanding of file extensions is a completely irrelevant comment about C# and python. You're full of hot air and you don't know when to shut up.

Lookit those mental gymnastics.

How could you tell if the eqgame.exe process was accessing your web browser's DNS cache?

As with any proper discussion about computers or software, it pretty much broke down into a bunch of individual spats over semantics.

This was literally my only problem. Greengrocer over there needed to be called on his bullshit.
