Weird switched from Assist running the server to the linux dedicated and the server in the deploy listing says it is authorized but when you join it says it is not.

actually the mech takes screen shot of the screen, if you are alt tabbed it will probably show what u can see
also it takes SS on Join. some users used to have Cheat clients on their taskbar / desktop:)

You might want to re-think this. Either keep it from taking screenies of the desktop, or warn users in the TOS about visiting their banking institution or watching porn or whatever. Heck, maybe a video conference is going on and you can see inside somebody's house...you get the picture of how bad this can get

My thoughts exactly. It's just too much you're giving away to play a free game. I pretty sure the hackers have a way to skirt this anyways. You're just making more players afraid to play the game again. Especially what had happen in recently. Catching hackers at all cost seems too far. But that just my opinion.

That's the whole point of the TOS. Assist is taking a screenshot of the environment in which it is operating. If you want to alt+tab to view your bank account numbers, that's your deal. I've never seen any information in online banking be dangerous. Sure, maybe an address if you're viewing a Paypal transaction but so what? You are the one controlling what information goes into your computer.

Also, I've said it before, if we wanted to be malicious, we would have already done something in the last 5+ years Assist has been running. Like use Assist to harvest passwords and try social engineering to gain access to your digital accounts. A lot of people use the same password for everything. The screenshots are not for public viewing and frankly, they're not being taken at a timed interval. The screenshots are being taken when Assist requests them. Most users will never have screenshots taken of their computer. The screenshots are only a step for those players that are suspicious. When those screenshots are taken, they are only accessible by us devs.

For me (http://sourceforge.net/projects/aa25assist/files/Binaries/25Assist.zip/download) download does not start right away. Why?

Or does the game start receiving this error:

Anyone else having problems with brightness settings..? I cannot change them at all, the sliders move but nothing happens and changing them from assist makes no difference either.
