The Warden periodically scans the status of all running processes on a user's PC, looking for applications that allow cheating, but also manages to capture e-mail addresses and other sensitive info as well. This application however, can't detect any files that are hidden with Sony BMG's content protection, which only requires that the hacker add the prefix "$sys$" to file names.

Rootkit comes on sony drives: (USM256F & USM512FL)

You press "edit post" and just add on to your first post instead of quad posting.

Just FYI.

the sony rootkit wont matter, wow doesn't look for process names anymore, idk what article or blog you read, but its been a long time since it has done it. now, it looks at what ever is attached to, or messing with the WoW.exe Process. hiding your process from windows is one thing, but hiding it from the application your trying to get into is another.
