If this is true, why...

The warden then uses the GetWindowTextA function to read the window text in the titlebar of every window. These are windows that are not in the WoW process, but any program running on your computer.

I wonder why you are not include in honorbuddy a mask program that changes the name of the window and the process??Before using honorbuddy I was using pirox..that bot, whenever I run it it asked me to change the name of the process and was doing this automatically.

Extra safety is not bad...why don't you provide honorbuddy with a mask tool? And in any case, how can I do that myself?

I ve seen this article in a recent post in buddyforums and since the 6 month banwave, why not take every safety measure? Why should I have a process and a window say "Honorbuddy"? Is like going with a kilo of heroine in front of a police camera and say "no worrie, it is illegal to spy people from this camera, so most probably is turned off"....why not just hide the drugs?

This has been asked and disputed over the years, in short, it doesn't matter

What I see on those posts is some users ask for renaming the window, some other smartass users say their clever things without proving actually anything and a dev answering by asking a log (lol?)... No one can or did guarantee that Blizzard cannot scan your processes even if this is not "legal"...

So the question remains, and now is more important since honorbuddy got detected and no one knows why it got detected...even people who used it just for rotations got banned..so where are all the clever guys from the posts you linked now to tell us that we are paranoic and that blizzard cannot and not scan ram/processes?

like this post for example:

Listen guys, take a chillpill they havent detected us like many wrote Before otherwise we all would be banned within hours , secondly change the name on the exe file wont change Shieeeeet , try to bot safer dont make stupid stuff like running back and forth between 10 meter area for hours when u get stuck and Watch the bot so it doesnt do botliky thingies like stuck in a wall and stuff like that..

and last if you cant do the time dont do the crime for gods sake.

you know what? yes we all got banned within hours...so chillpill does not help..what helps is every bit of extra security

Ah, you think Blizz would take the risk of doing something they've been warned no to do... You think they'd take the risk of not being able to do any business in Europe anymore.... Just to catch some botters?

You want security? Don't bot!

As far as the window title is concerned: The proof is in the fact that we've only had 1 real banwave in years. If the window title or executable name had anything to do with it, NO ONE using HB would still have an account.
