We've had several reports of problems with false positives on servers
running the beta security modules we released on Friday.  We've replaced the
beta security modules with public versions for now.  Your servers should
update themselves.

If you've been running the beta security modules, please keep in mind that
we've had problems with false positives when deciding whether to manually
ban someone from your server based on a VAC detection.

Thanks to everyone who reported the problems.  We appreciate it.

Subject: New Beta Security Modules -October 11
Importance: High

We've updated the beta security modules.  These beta security modules should
fix the false positive problems some clients were having with the previous
security modules and will detect the most recent versions of Joolz (2.2,
2.22, and 2.30).

The wallhack block we've been working on is still under development and is
not included in this release.

1) This beta test is only for Counter-Strike servers...not Day of Defeat.

2) The password for the beta security modules is still "vactest", so make
sure you have...

-testmodule vactest

...in your command line and restart your server.  If you're already running
with the beta security module password in your command line, your server
should update itself.

Let me know if you have any problems with the beta security modules and
we'll look into them right away.

Thanks.
