"Hack Tool Detected"
Hi, my friend is having a problem, and I've used all my knowledge to help, but I guess I don't know the answer.
He'll play in a game for about 5-10 minutes, then receive a "Hack Tool Detected" error. Sometimes he receieves it as soon as he logs in, and sometimes he doesn't, but he gets it probably about 10-15 times a day.
I've taken the following steps:
- turning off Windows Firewall (because it's junk)
- closing every possible background task (task manager)
- running as administrator
This seems to not have worked, so I don't know what to do anymore. He's running Windows Vista (horrid, I know), and I figure this may be the problem.
Note: he does not use hacks, nor has he ever.
Any help?

He doesn't have an anti-virus, he had Windows Firewall on, which I turned off completely. Reinstalling Cross Fire wont fix such an error.Did you check the anti-virus? Maybe it updated and blocks CF for some reason.
Try reinstalling Crossfire too
No. Like I said, we turned off every possible background task, except for essential Windows tasks, which need to be running, and can't be closed. He just recently installed Cross Fire as well.There's probably another program that affects his gameplay. Did he install any new programs shortly before this error occurred?
