champ2011 10 Posted March 15, 2015 Hello everyone! I have some questions about my PC protection from sides addons developers. I read this thread https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Extensions and know what DLLs from addons can steal information about my PC (like in article says: "Anything you can do to the computer the dll can do") And the question: Can code in .PBO files from sides addons steal my data (if it have some bad codes inside .pbo), or it is imposible? For example: reg. files from registry (values from regedit) or my PC configuration data, passwords and other. Thx! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

das attorney 858 Posted March 18, 2015 I don't think you can hide a DLL in a pbo, but if you do install a dll then yes, they can steal the lot. So be sure you know what you are putting on your PC. (Check with other forum users/other sources/source code on Github etc). afaik, pbo's can only contain scripts and configs, so you should be ok as they can only do stuff in game.
