I'm also sure that VALVE would not do anything if they did not know what cheats was out there and how big the problem is. People complaining do a well job in showing how big the cheating problem is. Witch then again help VALVE set focus on the most known cheats. -- Børge Amundsen http://lv8pv.com _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
