Graal IS a virus.

I'm pretty sure what Graal does IS classified as a virus. It watches over your session. If you type cheat engine in google or open a folder named cheat engine, you'll get disconnected immediately and a notice is sent to everyone's RC.

Or at the very least a root kit.

Er, no. Graal just looks through running processes and tries to identify anything that might look suspicious. You don't even need any special privileges to do that kind of thing :3  

Try connecting to the internet first  

Well these are all very interesting solutions, but I downloaded the installer and had it extract to a dummy folder. I then zipped up said folder and placed it here for you, kenovo: http://www.valikorlia.com/Graal.zip

Extract that folder anywhere you like and give it a run. Graal is actually a very simple program for the PC, I don't think your issue has much to do with registry or multiple installations of Graal.  

Who cares about the client, its dead anyways.

I had the same problem before, fp4 gave me a ZIP and it still didn't work. You could be right though, not too sure what the problem is exactly.

No ven, it worked. I just deleted some of the other Graal programs on my laptop then reran the one Phantos linked, and it worked.

What about watching what you type in google?

It doesn't. It looks at window titles and process names.

If you search 'test' on Google your window title will change to 'test - Google Search'.

Huh, well thanks for clearing that up.

Which is somewhat common, though some other anti-cheat methods are way more invasive. I think there was an article recently about the lengths that VAC(which is what Valve uses to protect their servers) snoops around to find cheaters.  

You use to be able to send a link to someone and force close their client.

I don't know. Call me crazy but I'm fine with Valve being a bit more invasive. They're well known and established, where Graal on the other hand was, is and will always be relatively unknown and can get away with more before being caught.

Asshole friends on Classic would AIM me with usernames that Graal flags...yup.
