EverQuest Cheaters

According to BBC NEWS....

"A war is raging for the heart of the popular online fantasy game EverQuest. But this battle is not being fought between players and marauding hordes of monsters. Instead the fight is between Sony, who run the game, and an anonymous group of programmers who have created software that makes the game almost too easy to play."

So, hackers have whipped up a Linux program that draws a map of the world in EverQuest and tells you exactly where the monsters are, thus taking 90% of the challenge out of the game. Seems like only short-term fun to me.
