Okay, so my friend showed me a few replays from his games on ICCup and wanted me to check if they were hacking. So I checked them and apparently the ICCup antihack doesn't work, or maybe I don't understand how it works. I thought it wasn't supposed to let you play if you have a hack running, but the replays I saw were indeed ICCup games. And the hackers were clearly using the automine/autobuild hack, which is coupled only with a maphack program.

There's at least a maphack out that works with ICCup launcher, and according to its maker: "ICCup Launcher is not a viable "anti-hack"."

I have no idea how it works, but I was told that they couldn't add APMAlert in as a plugin because it modified memory. So, I would figure it scans certain parts of SC's memory and makes sure they match up, but who knows.
Can you jam with the console cowboys in cyberspace?

Oh, and I know its a hack from the replay because it is the method we've used to catch at least 50 players hacking this past season at VGT.

It probably takes programmers 3-4 hours tops to create a new working hack every time they update the ICCUP launcher. seriously the antihack is just a placebo to make you feel safe. you really are not safe.

the hackers own the world.

A simple search of BWhacks will find you working hacks. Its impossible to make a perfect anti-hack, same goes for anti-virus, etc.

Open the replay in BWChart and then read the following link and compare.

I know, its a sad truth huh. I just find funny how some people say the only think ICCup has over WGTour, and what makes it better, is the antihack.. wait, excuse me, the NON-working antihack.

What the iccup AH does is stop the relentless whines of "hack" from n00bs who can't understand why they lost to the better player. This allows the admins to focus more closely on real hack accusations instead of being flooded by 1000 such claims a day. It has no chance of stopping the real hackers unless they are lazy enough to use old, known, hacks.

Even a fake AH is better than none because of the suppression of the crybabies.

Antihack has been disabled for some time now due the server upgrading.
Any of these players did NOT have AH connected when this game was played
(12th Dec).

And even when it's working, you can play without antihack. Antihack is a voluntery for those who wants to get more points from MOTWs.

PLEASE DO some investigations before you post all this shit to entire internet.

ahahaha, the arguments and pictures there made me laugh. this were very-very weak arguments: I have so many replays where they (pros) do it in the 5'th frame...
the only valid arguemnt I can see is that it's hard to do with internet. But you know, SC is a peer-to-peer connection oriented game, so it's well possible, that they were playing from the same Lan or the latency between them was very small.

Actually it has been hacked several times, successfully too - but from what I've heard, they enjoy the sparring.

Its impossible to make a perfect anti-hack, same goes for anti-virus, etc.

Perfect anti-hack: Play with people you trust; Play on a LAN; Play with a referee; Force a check that makes sure only files which have been okay'd can exist in the StarCraft directory.

Perfect anti-virus: Use discretion when downloading files (I've downloaded tonnes of things over the past few years, and never had a virus). If you don't feel nervous running an .exe from a source you've never heard of, then sorry, there is no perfect anti-dumb-ass.

Maybe it was unnecessary for me to post this, but I'm sick of people having such absolute, and negative beliefs. You're right, there's no artificial computer program capable of recognising new threats and inventing solutions on it's own yet. But that doesn't stop the computer in you head from picking up the slack.
