A ZoneViewer that is able to communicate with live server -> Lots of trouble with SoE

I doubt that could ever even happen, let alone be a problem for SOE. I doubt anyone would ever be able to 100% recreate the encryption anyway, and it would be absolutely trivial for SOE to detect anyone using a client other than theirs to connect to their servers. I don't think you need worry about creating a client. Frankly I look forward to laughing (hard) at the nimrods who'd use it to try to cheat on EQLive and get their behinds banned.
The only thing I was worried about when writing OpenZone was if people tried to use it to cheat ingame. Not as a client, but if people tried to change existing SOE zones. That's why OpenZone doesn't have the ability to load .WLD files. It would be utter child's play for me to add that capability, but I won't -- because cheating would indeed then be easy and that isn't my intention at all (and I'm not interested in antagonizing SOE for no reason).
