Hi, This question might not belong here, but I'll give it a go anyways. My friend (yes, it wasn't me) was VAC banned from CSGO 2 days ago. He claimed that he didn't hack, and I had to believe him, even though I've heard many lame excuses to cover for a VAC ban. We were playing competitive when he got disconnected due to something with VAC authentication. We were losing the match, and he had the lowest score, which made me believe in what he said. We've been playing together for a very long time, and he has never played so good that you would suspect him for hacking. I started looking into the problem, and stumpled upon a reddit post where people claimed they had been VAC banned without hacking. A lot of people, actually. Apparently it had something to do with DEP was turned off. I asked my mate to open TeamViewer so I could check something, and I saw that DEP was turned off. I asked him why, and he said he was messing with some virusses a long time ago, and that it had to be turned off. Don't get me wrong, he's not one of those bad guys, infecting computers and shit.
Reading a bit more into the case, I saw that Valve recently published an update that needed DEP to be turned on, without really stating it anywhere. Have any of you guys ben affected by this? I saw some guys on Reddit saying that they didn't get a permanent ban, but he wasn't told whether or not the ban was permanent.
