MU Guard ++ Explained ++

I have noticed that some players do not actually now what MU Guard does.
Basically it detects cheats and hacks while the MU client is running.
here are some points and information about it.

Please do read the notes below the table.

example case:



Hack or Modification of Client Detected
[Involved:Char_Name] muguard case #.


Case # Reason
001 muguard failed to decrypt main.dat, possible cause is user running the client has no write permission in client folder.
002 main.dat is missing.
003 file added in crc list is missing.
004 crc value from crc list doesnt match the actual file in client.
005 llah.dll version doesnt match with main.dat version.
006 client file, main.exe, is renamed.
007 llck1.sys is missing.
008 llck2.sys is missing.
009 llck3.sys is missing.
011 llck1.sys is altered.
012 llck2.sys is altered.
013 llck3.sys is altered.
015 llah.dll IP doesnt match with main.dat IP.
016 mu.exe was bypassed. applicable only if you set mu launcher on in client config.
017 cheat detected with memory scanning method.
018 cheat detected with window scanning method.
020 proxy cheat detected (running main directly).
021 hiding process & mu title cancelled by user.
022 cheat detected with cheat file structure method (not recursive).
023 cheat detected with socket scanning method(proxy cheats).
024 muguard's thread for detection altered.
025 blacklisted cpu id detected.
026 same as case 22 but with additional check for api hook.
029 Main over-clocking detected (speeders).
030 Hidden tools detected (e.g. HideToolz).
031 DLL injections detected.
032 Corrupted/missing/locked lldb.dat.
033 MAC Address banned.

known solutions
# Issue Reason Solution
1 Client closed and you received MuGuard error Case 018. MuGuard detected a program as third party program. Close all programs then run Mu client.
2 Client crash before or after loading screen. Player's computer is infected with trojan rootkits that hooks other functions that will crash not only Mulander client but also other program using this rootkits. Remove this harmful rootkits with Kapersky KatesKiller.
3 Player's computer restarted with blue screen. Player started Mulander client in compatibility mode. Remove compatibility mode of Mulander client shortcut/program properties.
4A Client simply close after clicking the launcher's Game Start button. Your anti-virus software deleted the main.exe file. 1) Disable anti-virus software when downloading and installing the client. 2) Include Mulander folder in the Whitelist or Exclusions of your anti-virus software.
4B Client simply close after clicking the launcher's Game Start button. Debugger is present, DEP (Data Execution Prevention) is set to all programs and mu client is started with limited user. Close all debuggers before starting client, set DEP for essential windows programs only (system properties > Advance Tab > Performance Setting Button > Data Execution Prevention Tab) and run mu client with admin level (run as Administrator in Vista/Win7).

so the image above until the table is the one your browser will open once MU Guard detected something in your pc. The above cases are only a few of those cheats/hacks detectable by mu guard itself.
some may count to 1k or more cheats/hacks and 3pp out there.

and the table above this notes are simple solutions only.
if still you can't connect to your mu client while trying the solutions above.
contact your server administrator.
