Removing TQ's "antivirus"

04/29/2008 08:39 r34p3rex#1
Anyway, as you may all know, TQ has implemented their own "antivirus". No one has the source code to it, so who knows what kind of "scanning" it does. For all you know, it could be scanning your computer for "interesting" files containing private information and then sending it back to TQ's headquarters.

Let's remove it!

1. Open your Conquer 2.0 folder
2. Delete the zftqat folder.
3. Open ini\StartGame.ini
4. Change it so it looks like this

Code:
[ZFTqat]
FileName=
5. Restart CO and find that the antivirus is gone! hoorah

Have fun :D

sweet :)

The client dont complain at any time about this?

I wonder why the antivirus try to contact the internet (and what does it send/get from TQ?)

Also.....more importently, can TQ match logged accounts IPs with the ANTItrojan IPs from the other side (and that way see theres a few running clients on a IP not using the antitrojanthing)?

yeah nobody knows that...maybe they are going to scan the whole computer...

I don't trust that AntiVirus stuff TQ Implemented.
I use Avast Antivirus, and as soon as I installed the new patch my Av had little pop ups with some IP thats trying gain Access to my Pc - Not sure what or what It said, but Once I took the Antivirus out it stopped.

ill try make it clearer.

1. You log a client (TQ gets your IP at contact)
2. The new antitrojanscanner contact internet (TQ check the IP)
3. They could check the IPs on all running clients (or new logged clients), then check if theres a "antivirus" running on the same IP, if answer is no you somehow changed or deleted the virusscanner.

My question was if this would be a posible danger?

----and if you asked r34p, the answer is simple :P
1. close your game
2. make the changes described
3. reopen game
