My knowledge of PunkBuster is limited, but it doesn't rely on process-scanning only (as I believe warden does). A PB admin can grab a screenshot from the player's system to check for evidence of a cheat (for example, a hack that lets you see through walls in a 1st-person shooter). -Dave -----Original Message-----

I wonder if cheaters are looking at this to subvert the punkbuster
software that many online games use... _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
