Legal battle over Warcraft 'bot'

[equk]

Mirlander was a cheat/bot program converted from chinese origins. It came in various versions (as game patches stopped it working). It did loads of nifty little things, including sending your l/p to it`s origins

lol

I've seen a few of those l/p stealers for WoW before.

I just spoke to my bro and he said he thinks it's the same company who made/converted mirlander.

The logo is the same.

I read about this earlier too...

I reckon fair play to the bloke.. I can't believe they actually turned up at his door.. I'd be quite proud of that.

Also I can't believe their case for copyright infringement is based on the program copying it to RAM... Its hardly copyright theft is it!!

Like has been said they should just patch it up and it will take the dude a fair bit more time to make it work again and then just do another patch.. Not tough for a company raking in god knows how much every month from subscriptions.

Edit: Never played this WoW... What is it anyway [whistle]

Why can't Blizzard be just like any other game maker and just patch up the exploit? Taking some smalltime guy to court over it is pretty damn heavy handed imo.

Well it gets them more publicity, even if they lose. 1 day I will be getting a letter in the post asking me to chose a RL WOW character to be, there taking over the world!
