Since Valve disabled file scanning, HLGuard rarely actually detects and bans
a cheater. It's most important function is to render the cheats ineffective
by altering what happens on the server. One example is wallhacks. The client
may be running a wallhack, and it likely won't be detected, however, HLGuard
will prevent any data about players out of view from being sent to the
cheater thus rendering the wallhack useless.
