>>Could be that because the programmer(s) of Zmud werent allowed access to the GS code but until recently (past yr or so) you couldnt use ZMud to connect.

Common mistaken assumption. You could not use ZMud to directly connect to the game the way it does now, because ZMud was never set up to connect to the authentication server. Once the key was generated, however, you could then connect to the game with ZMud just as easily as now.

J'Lo, no that other one
