Warden : World of Warcraft General Discussions

I could not find a search engione to scan the forums for information on warden.

From what i can gather Warden is Blizzards anti hacking/bot/exploit tool that scans the memory or filespace for signatures to various programs.

Anybody have any more info?

Warden searches for certain programs and will ban you based on them. Why do you ask?

to elaborate...

While the game is running, Warden uses API function calls to collect data on open programs on the user's computer and sends it back to Blizzard servers as a hash values to be compared to those of known cheating programs.
