You were the only one I saw asking this and to the best of my knowledge you don't represent most people.

Not to mention, you apparently missed this post on this thread ...

Anyway, why is Decal trying to connect to insanity.org at start up, what's at insanity.org that Decal needs to look at???



... which pre-dates ALL of my posts, and which prompted my initial question.

Just so you know, Mekle owns the machine that is colocated and serving both Insanity-Inc.org and Decaldev.com.

I don't think it is a problem so much of what you wanted to ask, but how you were asking it.


coasty and you basically asked the same thing, the BIG difference being that coasty didn't ever imply anything to the effect of "decal is stealing people's information" which is what your post reeked of.


asking questions and getting answer is fine.. but implying or even hinting at something as serious as phishing or any other malware without warrant, cause, or proof is just plain insulting and rude.

Arch, give it up. There is no conspiracy. There is no trojan. Just a simple mistake that will be fixed in the future, as Haz said 70 posts ago.

as someone who doesnt know from squat, is this something that is hard to fix? like, it will take several months or so? or is this an easy fix that will be working come patch day?

It will be fixed when we release 7a, which will occur once we stop finding bugs that really need to be fixed in the core filter set.

I think that means that if the next patch requires a new build then the answer is yes. If it only requires the memlocs being updated then no.
