Suspicious activity detected?


(StereopwnZ) #1

So I tried to play the game but it keeps kicking me out for the screen telling me I have suspicious programs running but all I have is my chrome which i’m using to play music, battle.net launcher, steam, and rocketdock. Is it just because I have anything running in the background that will do this or does it really think these are suspiciousu programs?

I believe it’s anything that hooks the game that isn’t whistlisted and any other running program that is blacklisted.

So there will be something it doesn’t like, best thing I can suggest is closing everything else down then seeing if it works, if it does open background programs one at a time to see which is the cause.

The reason I suggest doing it this way around is because if you close programs until it disappears you’ll have had the message appear many times which seems to trigger a ban.

I had similar issues with Process Explorer, an enhanced Task Manager which is distributed by Microsoft. (Don’t know why this should be blacklisted and it probably does not “hook” into the game)

Anyway, finding the program causing the error may not be as simple as closing the program. In my case shutting down the program did not immediately solve the issue. I had to reboot my system to clear all remaining traces of the program. After this I was able to launch DB again. Hope this helps you determine which program is causing the error on your system.

That’s because Process Explorer is blacklisted, probably because it allows programs to be suspended.
