appears like magic then disapers anyone have any idea?

[Sadist_Cain]

I'm guessing you have Mcafee, Go for a spyware search (with something other than Mcafee) and see what turns up.

Other than that dunno what to suggest, it isn't an ArmA devoted problem, seems to be something the follows some folk with Mcafee

Grabmi_Filter_Privacy

Is definately the offending item, try to find out more about that, I can't be bothered with google ;P

[thedoombringer0]

i dont have macfee
but im running a check with spy bot search and destroy

[commando-101]

Hmmm, could be hardware related - sound card ?

try updating sound drivers or rolling back if they have just been updated.

Have seen this before when the game is rejecting a piece of hardware or it's drivers

All I got m8!

[thedoombringer0]

well ill give that a try

[thedoombringer0]

my graphics driver is upto date eh how so i see what sound card i have?

[thedoombringer0]
