You are much better of using for example "I#%Like!My#Sec/Passw" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexturn Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Is it safe to say, that if you just downloaded the dsound.dll and didn't activate the mod where the file was coming from nor followed any ingame activation instructions, that the file wasn't executed (or used) at all?
