remedyI'll have to do that first thing when i get home, also does anyone know the odds of a false positive VAC actually happening? Also if I'm the only comp tf2 player this has happened to?

I can't believe people are still arguing with remedy over petty shit after his vac has been reversed.
The man suddenly had almost everyone in the tf2 community suspecting him of cheating even though he never has in his life. That must be extremely stressful. He handled himself really well throughout the vac ban so allow him a few triumphant posts now that it's been reversed jeez.

Every time someone gets un-vacced the more I start to believe people's "HE'S SUCH A NICE GUY I SAW HIM AT LAN" arguments :(

ComangliaI'm going to assume if remedy was cheating it was more of the "for the lulz" kind of situation, that or he was using cheat engine to hack some other game like dungeon defenders 1/2 (see his recently played) and left cheat engine opened. The only other option I would think of is that he wanted to get vac banned so he would never play again.
lol
Glad to see you got unbanned remedy looking forward to seeing you again on skial badwater sometime.

Let's take this as a reminder these automated systems are not infallible and mistakes can and do happen and behind every alias is a real person. All the time on these and other forums I see people get so caught up with the witch-hunt they forget that. Insulting or bullying them and the likes isn't likely to help the case.

strazyyyremedyNope, they didnt tell me anything and im afraid to ask for fear of getting rebanned out of spite
have you ever used cheat engine in a game that's not tf2 for example dungeon defenders?
if yes then you probably left cheat engine running and you were flagged for a ban. luckily cheat engine bans are reversed by valve sometimes.
As I mentioned before VAC doesn't ban for things being open on your desktop. You'd need to do something to the memory of an executable that is related to the game/VAC while in a VAC server.
HurpDurpIn the few instances where I've seen people get their VAC bans reversed, it is usually caused by rootkits or other malware infecting system files and modifying processes. You should probably run a few different virus scans to be sure your system is clean.
This is the most likely thing that happened.

Firedrezzo still banned :(
un-vacced now
[quote=Fire]drezzo still banned :([/quote]

i would just like to say the brit player people were talking about, drezzo who got vacced about a week ago, got unbanned today due to a false ban wave. Apparently the false ban stats are this:
'We’re talking a statistic of 0.13% where that has ever happened. ( 2751398 bans, 3759 unbans.)'
