A common keystealer that is going around which provides keys to shops on removed installs a backdoor, so if you're trying to play the game and you're CD Key is being reset to 0000-0000-0000-0000 then you've probably got it. Anatomy - Uses dropbox for the key submit url and backdoor download - Submits keys as of now to removed - Sends computer name and IP address along - Sends username to decide which store to save into - Admin username is 'admin' - Backdoor replaces key with 0000-0000-0000-0000 every few seconds - Example request removed arrow223 PC NAME : PC_Name Key : AAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAA Signs of Backdoor - A process named Skype.exe that is not skype - Skype moaning it is already open on start - Skype.exe not responding (errors in some cases) Cure Nothing you can do about you're CD Key unless you use steam, in-which you can replace you're CD key again (after removing backdoor). To remove the backdoor kill any processes name Skype.exe and go to %appdata%/Roaming/DayZ Updater and remove Skype.exe. Hope this helps.
