Hidiho, Hm, havent thought about the HLGuard yet, the thing is I updated metamod from 1.17 to 1.18 last night. But I Downgraded everything back but the error still occured. Strange thing... ok heres the original message: >>Disconnected You have been disconnected from the server. Reason: Client timed out while answering challenge <<
I read people posting about that issue on every server they connect to. I doubt they all have HLGuard on though. Even as I said I put everything back to pre-today-stage and it still didnt work, weird... The oldest Posting I found so far was from the 29 of December 05. I asked my buddy, if he changed settings on his computer and stuff like that, but nothing unusual. He just installed age of empire ^_^ which could mess up the whole thing since its a microsoft product :P I've found an entry in a hackz-board via google, someone posted the exact same error message having a cheat activated and a method to block VAC from scanning your computer, detecting cheats. Talking about IP Blocking etc, ...maybe thats some useful information, I dont know.
