I have posted on the matter of these programs before. This person offers three different programs, though they are all the same ,trojans. There's the money farming bot, the armor calculator, and the skill trainer bot. All of the trial downloads are the same size and include the same virus.

Armor Manager - is everyone aware?

The virus used may have changed since then, but I didn't bother to check. I would imagine that some sort of virus is still used though.

The mind boggles.

I suppose there is a slightly uplifting side to this latest one. The developer of the virus is targetting the cheaters. Only dishonest players would get their accounts hacked through this one.
The armor calculator however would tempt many honest players too.

To be totally cynical about it, I suppose that's one way to get rid of cheaters. Not one I'd condone though.

I spoke with someone from ebay and gave tyem the pertinent information as what this person is doing is unethical and quite possibly criminal.

I just looked this thing up on Ebay, this guy is selling it on EVERY shard. He has totally taken over the UO section of ebay. Its insane. He bolded and purpled his listings. Will it help to report the seller or something to get this out of there?

I did report him yesterday, but it takes Ebay an age to do anything

7th February 2006, 01:09 PM

I reported him myself today as well.

Flutter · 7th February 2006, 01:17 PM

I don't have an ebay account.
Can I still report him?

7th February 2006, 01:29 PM

I think so, but don't quote me on it.

Pretty sure 9 out of 10 programs bought off of E-Bay for any game use are/will have some type of virus on it. I've heard of atleast 20 and none that actually work and don't include virii.
