Blizzard updated Warden recently.
What is known:
-The newest Warden module executes itself multiple times per second.
-EasyMap's SafeMode is still completely undetectable for all versions. Because of this, v7.0 will ONLY allow SafeMode (to ensure people don't go get themselves banned on purpose).
-EasyMap's "non-SafeMode" and mousepad's maphack are now detectable. If you use mousepad's maphack, or EasyMap without SafeMode on, do so at your own risk!
That's all I know, right now. Perhaps Jan can give us some more details.

netter said:That's correct. You are still safe with EasyMap in safemode, which will not change in quite awhile I predict. The new warden update seems to me more like a "anti-mousepad" update, as his cool trick of "unloading" on each "warden scan" packet will not work so good anymore.
You can imagine it this way:
-Mousepad's maphack has about 100 modifications of Diablo II module code, but has alot of features
-EasyMap has NO modifications of Diablo II module code, but is limited in the amount of features it can carry
Now if warden scans *at all times* (as it is now, with the new update) mousepad will have ALOT of problems hiding all those modifications. EasyMap is unaffected though.

EasyMap v6.5+ in safemode (including easymap 7.0) is unaffected.
