A sneaky thing that works is to open a new account, put $5+ in and then gift a game to the main account, it sort of works but at the same time I still had some issue with a secondary account that I did this with and had to moan at support to get it working right.

It's been too long since I used a limited account but since you can't trade or use the market place with a limited account there's no hurry to use Idle Master. IIRC it should still work to get the card drops though.

See pinned threads for how to log in, you need to get the right info from browser cookies which is getting harder as some browsers have removed access to that data without the use of an extension.

Idle Master Extended stills works with the awkward login using cookie info from a browser session. I haven't tried the HTTPS-Fix version. ASF no doubt works but it doesn't farm cards any where near as fast. I assume Idle-daddy still works.

How would Steam "Ban" it? I don't think that Steam condones IdleMaster as it is. They just haven't done anything about it up until now.

Do you really think this group would still be here if Idle Master was a virus/trojan/spyware?

Zeta has done nothing but prove that it isn't virus/trojan/spyware by linking to evidence that shows it isn't those things. Go see for yourself.

Or to put it another way, MS Office installer probably scores 3+ out of 10 on that site.

In the video at 09:52 you can see the malicious software he tested has some items with red lines next to them (more dangerous) and some items with yellow lines next to them (risky) and some less important items with grey lines next to them (least risky). Now look at Idle master and note that it only has a couple of things with grey lines next to it 'suspicious'. These things build up a picture, if there's a lot of red-line stuff then it is probably spyware, if it's just a couple of grey line things then it probably is not spyware.

OK?

That video you linked, tell me what does the software he tests score on the spyware meter? 09:20 into the video. That's not idle master of course, IdleMaster gets 1/10 IE, a clean bill of health

You are clueless, 1st you say 2 out of 71 AV engines calling something a virus/trojan means it is when in fact it means it isn't IE 69 out of 71 AV engines said that IdleMaster is not a virus or trojan, how do you explain that?

And then you go and make the exact same mistake again telling me that a 1 out of ten score means something is spyware when that pretty much means it is not spyware. You do not know how to read the results that these sites are giving you. I do.

IdleMaster has been out for years and has been used by tens of thousands+ people, now do you not think that some of those tens of thousand of people have anti-virus and anti-spyware tools? If IdleMaster really was malicious then Steam would of banned it years ago.

You can literally go and download the source code for Idle Master and look through it.

You can use a free tool like sysinternals procmon (on MS site) to watch what is happening on your system but you'd also have to understand the output and not jump to conclusions.
