PunkBuster is significantly better than anything I've seen in general use, other than VAC. AhnLab is in fact in charge of Hackshield. Their customer service is quite awful... I've been in contact with them before. I think that BlackCiph3r is really a joke. It's done absolutely nothing for Combat Arms. In fact, I think it's made it easier for hackers. Before, Anti-Kick had been patched permanently, along with Godmode and a couple others. Now we have ridiculous things like unlimited Spawn Shield. I think they should just go with something that's proven effective.
