Steam VAC

[dfg555]

I was wondering if VAC actually scans your entire system for hacks? I read somewhere it scans your DNS and sends that information their servers? Can they ban your entire Steam Account once they've detected hacks in your computer?

I don't say..

I know only, you have hack for prefer game, you get ban on server hosting but for full steam you must play game without hostings servers..

VAC:

 

If a user connects to a VAC-Secured server from a computer with identifiable cheats installed, the VAC system will ban the user from playing on VAC-Secured servers in the future.
While server admins may choose to ban specific players, server admins cannot VAC ban players. The VAC system is automated - contacting Steam Support to report cheaters is not necessary, nor will Steam Support act on any information provided.
The VAC system reliably detects cheats using their cheat signatures. Any third-party modification to a game designed to give one player an advantage over another is classified as a cheat or hack and will trigger a VAC ban. This includes modifications to a game's core executable files and dynamic link libraries.

You're supposed to hide your hacks in the Microsoft folder so Gabe doesn't find them.

What does DNS have anything to do with scanning?

The DNS scans your HDMI to make sure you aren't storing illegal files on your VGA.

afaik, you can only get VAC banned if you actually use a hack on a VAC protected game and the hack is detected
so simply having a hack on your computer should be safe

I'd go with the safe route and delete system32 before I downloaded anything.
