Yeah, exactly... per my post there:

If this is legit, why do I see "<Razor 1911>" at position 2e0 to 2ec of the file (using a hex editor)? Hmm... I smell a RAT.

This same exe keeps popping up again and again, we have had people in this post trying to pass it off as the EA Downloader exe (Valium).

Can no one actually verify if the EA Downloader exe works?

If anyone has the EA Downloader version of BF2142 please PM me?

I guess if your using the EA Downloader version your probably not browsing this topic anyway Maybe I should ask around on a BF board but I'm sure if it did work the EA Downloader exe would be around everywhere.

Wouldn't you think it would be easy enough for EA to keep track of who actually downloaded via EA Downloader versus those that didn't? I don't know if this is actually being done, but if it were, then no one except the legit EA Downloader purchasers could use that EXE.

Hello. I just uploaded updated version 1.01 of exe file from EAlink to GCW.
Try to start it in win2000 compatibility mode first time and then switch it back to normal mode.

Yes, I can confirm: The pretended "EA Downloader exe" (torrent file above) DOES work. I've installed the game from the original DVD, updated it and overwritten the "DVD exe". Perfect!

I find it funny people decide to sign up and use their first post to try and convince us of something.

My suspicious bone is tingling again.

Sorry, I just wanted to help. I do not want to "convince" anyone, it worked for me and that's it.

I don't care about your meaning. If you don't want it then leave it.

H*ll yeah I'm suspicious, especially knowing I paid lots of $$ for BF2142, and don't want to have my CD key nullified because someone said it would work. Check the memory locations as I said, and then compare to your legit version. Using freeware HexEditor:

one on the GCW (I believe the same as the aforementioned torrent):
000002e0:3c 52 61 7a 6f 72 20 31 39 31 31 3e 00 <Razor 1911>.
MD5sum: 6d0911d39daecd58838292faf0543e2a *bf2142.exe

my legal, unaltered copy (patched to 1.01):
000002e0:73 74 78 74 37 37 34 00 c4 00 00 00 00 a0 80 stxt774.Ä.... €
MD5sum: 8c42fc26ba4d7090a71124263cf0d8c6 *bf2142.exe

You tell me, what will tingle your suspicious bone more?? :-)
