It has come to our attention that World of Warcraft Hackers already are using Sony BMG Music Rootkit Software to hide their hacking from Blizzards Warden Client.
We reported earlier this week that some Music Cds by Sony BMG labeled “Content enhanced & protected” would bring up an installation program when the music cd was put into a personal computer.
This program once installed could not be uninstalled by normal means. Hackers could use the software to hide their hacking attempts from antivirus tools and the like. Who would have thought that the first available use would be using this for hacking the online game World of Warcraft ?
Blizzards Warden Client checks every 15 seconds if the computer playing Word of Warcraft runs programs or scripts in its background that would illegaly help players cheat in the game. Take a look at the related thread to receive more information.
