lol Wow I could read. I misread 1 for a 9. whoops.

Clicks to reply Seeā€™s that the community already said what I was going to say Good job, boys.

Works fine.
Found 1 defect file.

I thought this new launcher got was so didnā€™t get these attacks? well what said anyways

Nothing is impenetrable ā€¦ although they do try to prevent it. This type of attack to my knowledge, wouldnt target the launchersā€¦ but rather the servers themselves.

The launcher has nothing to do with DDOS or anything of the ilk.
The launcher is part advertising tool, part account manager.
It stores your username and password (or perhaps just a token) and generates another login token to be used when logging in. So that way your credentials are not sent to the server (but eh, they are still sent to the SSO server so I am not sure how thatā€™s all that much different)ā€¦
Anyhow.
Anything that they do to the software on YOUR computer will have NO IMPACT on how they can stop DDOS from reaching their servers.
