Im worried about this patch.

Q. what gurantees do we have that this is the offical patch ?
A. none, nobody from CA even new it was being released.

Q. if it is the offical patch how do we know we have the correct version of the patch. some moron guy at inactivision could have released a premature version.

Q. why is nobody from inactivision yet come out 24 hours after the patch is in the wild and confirmed that yes this is the correct patch.
A. surely somebody would have posted something on an offical website by now. they have had hours to have meetings on what do if the patch was accidently released and come up with some kind of statement.

Q.how do i know i am not installing some harmful code on to my computer ?
A. I dont know. its unlikly but it could happen.
this could be that fu##kwit spanky and his crew who hacked the .com (and alledly members puters) having another go at destroying CA by hacking into their server stealing the patch and then releasing it to the free file servers with a virus payload hidden in the code.

until these questions are answered i will download but not install this patch.

yes I may be totaly paranoid and a bit mental


edit. got rid of my intial post whining about spaming and posted a conspiracy theroy instead
