Be more specific!!!!!!!!!

Why does it matter?

[epicasian]

Just wondering. All of my other games don't need to be run as an admin, so why CABAL?

[Lethal]

BEcause Cabal is better than the rest of your other games, and needs to be treated as such.

[epicasian]

:confused: So, it needs to be run as an admin, and is reported by some antivirus programs?

Seems kinda iffy to me.

[Lethal]

What programs?

[epicasian]

Anti-Virus softwares below may cause CABAL Client to malfunction.

- NOD 32
- McAfee
- DrWeb
- BitDefender
- Panda
- Norman

If one of these Anti-Virus program is running in your system, we recommend you to use other program or add the folder
(default path : C:\Program Files\Cabal Online (US)\) to your Anti-Virus exception list.

It says that in the Cabal FAQ.

Mang, the support staff is filled with a bunch of baboons. Don't worry.

Besides, it's a game. If you're going to be pooping yourself every time you run it then you shouldn't be playing. But Imma let you in on a secret; you'd be missing out.

its simple game engine hooks, api hooks, ect... any virus/trojan software will detect these in ALOT of games, its pointless to scan a .exe from a developer thats trusted...assuming you trust ESTsoft. Their hooks and calls could corrupt your system if they were coded maliciously, basically is what the software would false alert, "possible harmful code" about, when in reality its normal to have alot of .exes detect as trojans ect... also gameguard is more of a trojan then cabalmain.exe ever will be.

if you gotta run it as admin it means ur running vista
i think vista rates anything liek 13+ you need admin access
so simply take off user account control off then you don't need admin for anything
just click start and click the picture above ur account name then theres a line called turn off and on user account control then just click no and restart and then no more user control thing adn need to run as admin
( you gotta be admin to even do this lol )
