UPDATE

I originally thought this would protect against being crashed to desktop, but it was never thoroughly tested.
It is now guaranteed to stop you from being crashed to desktop from the vote-kick exploit. It will still not stop you from being kicked, but if everyone has this, it would take an attacker a long time to kick everyone.

EDIT: Oh great and powerful moderators, can I get this stickied.

Your wish has been granted :mrgreen:
Tough i would suggest you change to name of this thread to something more related to the crash to desktop protection.

This is pure genius. When mystery man did his vote-kick hack against the dark server yesterday, I didn't crash, and I wasn't even kicked from the server. Thanks, Bryant.

I like the new "Victory/Defeat" font + new admin colour. Oh and the crash protection... :whistling:

Thanks Bryant!

The file originally posted provides protection, correct? Anyone who's already downloaded it has no need to redownload?

False - redownload. The original file does not protect against this crash to desktop.

I originally thought that it did, but it turns out that it only stopped you from being able to crash people and not the other way around. It was all an experimental fix and I never properly tested it. I reevaluated how to patch it this time, and found a much cleaner fix that actually works.
