    What on earth are you talking about? Report it to the e-crime unit or to SOCA. If you really believe this is a danger to all we hold dear, then you should do this. Unless of course you're just being dramatic for effect.

    edit: Or what Bitterman said.

    This "yellow peril" shit is getting nauseating. I'm off to bed now, and will sleep on it, but I think I'm going to put in a formal ban request tomorrow. Bruce, you are just plain acting the cunt. Take it somewhere else.

    Now you are being daft. Evony is Chinese, written by UMGE in Guangdong. So what is wrong with calling it Chinese if it is Chinese? Evony plays in English and is run through a Delaware front company. So it is tageted at Western gamers. If it was targeted at Chinese gamers it would be in Chinese. And Evony does put client software on your PC that you have no control over. And this client software is now on over 10 million Western computers. I started a thread on my blog titled Is Evony Malware? Lots of people have contributed to this. You can read what they have to say. You don't need to take my word for it. http://www.bruceongames.com/?s=is+evony+malware

    Ha ha. SOCA have zero effect on the drug barons. And e crime is rampant with trojans, pfishing and Nigerian scammers running amok with no action taken against them. The only thing plod are interested in online is kiddie porn.

    The anti-virus companies, then? This is their raison d'etre. So you'll have given them your proof and they'll have contacted the proper legal authorities, yes?

    You are so full of shit.

    It's not legalese to be totally unsure of whether or not someone you're accusing of having committed a crime has actually committed that crime or not.

    What exactly is the problem though? If I had a game which was being played by folks all over the world (including China) I'd be chuffed to bits. I'd certainly think about setting up a Chinese version if it would help.

    Maybe the reason they have a "front company" (if it is even that) is to avoid the racism apparently present in the Western world.

    I'm sorry Bruce, but I really do feel that you're quite racist, and it's not just about the Chinese. I'm Scottish and I have to admit being offended every time you use the word Scottish in a pejorative sense about Gordon Brown.

    I think some serious introspection is called for, but then I'm pretty sure it's been called for before.

    I'm half Scottish.

    And Brown is a one eyed Scottish idiot. Fact.

    Bruce, neither you nor they have the technical competence to asses whether this malware or not. You should take the advice of the many people here who know whey are talking about and drop this.

    When the owners of evony rip you a new one in court, you will only have yourself to blame.

    Which is why I wrote in my original article, if you had bothered to read it: Now I am not saying that Evony has a trojan in its client software. This would take proper technical investigation.

    What are you saying exactly? Over on rllmukforum you wrote this:http://www.rllmukforum.com/index.php?showtopic=216164&hl=
    I'm assuming it's irrefutable and compelling evidence of Evony containing a trojan. You don't actually say exactly what the evidence is of but that's the only assumption I can think of that fits.

    Assumptions, heh.

    Bruce it reads like a clue from 321

    What are you talking about?

    So you have irrefutible and compelling evidence of...?

    What, exactly?

    If not Evony being malware and containing a trojan, then something completely fucking irrelevant, while still implying that you have proof of malware and the trojan. In which case you're fucked, Bruce, because they've got you bang to rights and you've been libelling them.

    Bruce Everiss May or May Not Be A Moron
    By Puppy 1/11/09

    I'm not saying out right that Bruce is a moron. Though plenty of evidence point to that conclusion, proper investigation might still be required to asses the results. It may be that he is just incredibly clueless, arrogant and ignorant of the subject material, but I won't let it stop me from writing an accusatory headline as it might attract more readers to my blog.

    Please visit my blog.

    Bruce is a moron (or not.)

    So now you have reached the stage that all you are capable of is being abusive. Impressive stuff.
