Tibia Standalone Client - Win32:Evo-gen [Susp] - Is this Tibia's "secret weapon?"

[J.Dre]

Win32:Evo-gen [Susp] was identified in the client installation earlier. I did some research into it and learned that this specific Malware is used to collect usage data from the your computer, and can be remotely accessed from the source for analysis. So, is this what Tibia uses to track botters? Let me know what you think below.

P.S. I don't know much about this type of Malware. So, I'm just making this thread for discussion purposes.

@HjugO,

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I don't remember when but within the last few years did they not state that the Tibia program would be taking information about the computer Tibia is running on and that it would now be included in the terms and agreement?

Edit: Found this in their Privacy Policy

CipSoft collects the usage data that is automatically determined and transmitted by web browsers or any other client software whenever CipSoft's websites (tibia.com, cipsoft.com or any other of CipSoft's websites) or one of CipSoft's other online services is used. Such usage data includes, but is not limited to, IP address, browser version, access time, information on the type and the aim of requests and data about hardware and software of the user's computer system. It is saved in protocol files, with some of the information being stored in anonymous form. Among other purposes, this data is used by CipSoft for the compilation of anonymous statistical surveys on the use of their online services and for the error analysis and the optimisation of their service.

Note the bold part.

Would that mean that someone who uses bot on ots and not on rl will get deleted? Would be retarded.

I don't believe so. Packets go both ways - Tibia's servers to you, then you to them. So, if you're not sending to them, they probably can't detect anything.
