Does a lag Prog exist?

This does not happen often. And I have a great connection and rarely ever drop, unless a severe snowstorm or the like in my area... Does a drop program exist for bnet? And if so is there any way to detect it? I have had a few games, not too many to rage about, but a few, that it seems there is always a massive shit talker and he is losing, then out of nowhere I get a massive lag and kicked out. I can whisper immediately after, WC3 does not close, my internet is running fine, but i dc just long enough for a vote on the game? Can anyone tell me what is up?

This already happened with me too. Exactly the same situation that you described.
Exist some programs that drop people from games at battle.net (that is sure). But i don't know if has any way to detect it. I heard sometimes can be detect depending the way was done.
Sometimes is just a battle.net glitch, but some times is a hacker program.

In your situation, 7 out of 10 times, it's a drophack, and yes, they do exist. Out of the games that this did happen, did the person say something in private chat, or was there a delay of reaction time on their part?
The other 3 would be the occasional (and unfortunate) battle.net/bot disconnection, possible desync, or external interference (if you're playing on wifi)

You're not the only one. I've only had it happen to me once, and I just laughed in the guy's face.

I do believe that lag program exists but i doubt some, if any at all, work on the current 1.26 patch. It's not like anyone would currently be developing one right now since WC3 is a dying game.
However what i do think you should do is try using
GProxy++.This tool helps prevents disconnection in-game regardless of whether the problem is server sided or client sided.

You can be doubtful, but it doesn't mean that you are right. While Wc3 is a dying game, there are at least three, one public and two private (possibly more), that work perfectly on the current patch.
Also, even though GProxy++ does help by providing a second chance at reconnecting on a game and a possible defense against the public program, it won't stand a chance against the two private programs.

I don't see any mention of a specific game, unless you can link it this is pure speculation.

ive been playing dota forever
there definitely was a drop hack way back when. and if its still around i cant confirm. all i can tell you is i lan with my brother and every now and then i'll be owning someone and then when i get my 6th kill (example) on someone and i all a sudden lose connection to bnet or lag out of the game then lose connection, and my brother doesnt, makes me believe its still around.

Yeah, I made that post last night. Not trying to say it was rampant, or it even happened to me a a lot. Hence me saying "a few" and "nothing to rage about". It was just a general question. I had a bad game and when I used to foots people talked about a drop program as well. Wanted to hear other people to see if it was just a myth or there was actually something out there.
The game if you are interested though is
http://s1.clanent.net/replay/view_repla ... 351509.w3gNow I look back at the replay, the player ibenz lagged and when reconnected with gproxxy, so I think I will get it now.

Same here. If you looked harder, you would find the pathetic public one. The private ones will never be on there, because they're, well, private.

There're drop and lag hacks.
For the lag hack, I can give you a replay example if the OP wants to see it.

Lag hack:
http://blinkgaming.net/forums/topic/146 ... ?hl=laggerI experienced it myself many times. It's impossible to do something. Only way is actually kicking/votekicking the accused person.
