In short:
Trojan.Belonard replaces the list of available game servers in the game client and creates proxies on the infected computer to spread the Trojan.


Steam already blocked a lot of them but you never know how many are left, created anew and how many gamers already fell for the trap.

an emoji i used in conversation with Spoopy yesterday. Boy am i glad i took a leave of absence from most of the comments waiting for me at that right top corner of my Steam screen.
But ehm.... i'm not a no-sound guy. I did say about the same as BossGalaga now does here, augmented with that all important
"And even if you are in the right, sometimes you have to shut up and take it for the greater good." Budozero added.

Since this is written here, i would like to repeat Spoopy should to take to heart to adhere to that
"And even if you are in the right, sometimes you have to shut up and take it for the greater good."
If Spoopy cools down, then i am confident Vixinity and her friends will cool down immediatly. Very likely taking less time then Funz/Fonzy and friends would need to calm down. About Funz & Fonzy i am less confident if they are willing to atm, as fired yup as they are. Being fired up is why i think they first need some time to calm down a bit, just enough to be able to want to calm down some more. I certanly do think they eventually will want to.
There is about a simmular issue around Crashed (no matter rootcouses may seem different to some) where attacks on Crashed may turn into attacks on Spoopy and vice versa. That should be stopped as well.

After all, (in my eyes) all of the lead-rol players here belong with the "good guys". Now please act like it.

Ah yes, i didn't try those.

First possible solution doesn't work. But i did not try the multiple entry.

Oh, and from the original thread:

Any-one knows trhe solution for multiple languages?
i tried a variaty. Most of the time the changed file is removed upon restarting steam client. When log-in window is opened it takes 1 second to auto-replace a new file without the spellcheck, then at the actual log-in the new file is re-written with the spellcheck added.
I am on a Windows pc.

Glad i am not a hardcore collector. Just looked at some dragon stickers (CSGO among them) but nothing for me. I'll stick to cards emojis and backgrounds.
