It’s a software program that lets you run multiple different accounts off the same computer. This is fine, Anet have stated that provided you play the games individually without using macros etc to assist you can use such a program.

However, what I’m hoping is can someone with the smarts can give the code for this a once over? It asks you to enter your e-mail and password into it to open up multiple accounts, which, as you might imagine, makes me REALLY uncomfortable.

Is it safe?

Guardian replies, “No, but how’d the elementalist die?”

I can’t say if it’s safe or not. None of the players here can with any authority. If you’re not sure, the safest course of action is to assume it’s not safe. The fact that they’re asking for your login details is an immediate red flag, and I would be very wary of giving that to anyone.

Ultimately, if you’re not sure, the only course of action that is definitely safe is to not use it.

There is a source code provided at the website. People have used these source codes to review other software that might be questionable. I assume the same applies here.

Can you trust that site is built from the source code you can see? How do you know they haven’t built from one set of source code, and then presented a different set of source code for people to review?

If you’re not absolutely 100% sure, the only safe option is to not use it.

I see what your saying, but I feel your more or less guessing. Can’t the source code be compared to .exe you download?

To an extent, yes, I am guessing, and yes, I could take the source, build it, and compare the exe produced to the one presented, and say if it’s the same. Why should you trust me?

Why should a random person on this forum be any more trustworthy that the people behind that website?

If you’re not comfortable trusting the software (which I assume is the case otherwise, why create this thread?) why would you be comfortable trusting a complete stranger on this forum telling you, yes, it’s ok?

Ok, I’ve had a quick look, and immediately noticed something concerning – the executable zip contains 130MB of files, whereas the source zip contains just 3MB. That suggests to me that the executable is not built solely from the source presented (I would not expect the source to be so much bigger than the executable).

Anyone with coding exp have an opinion?

Only way to be sure is to compile it yourself, or have someone compile it you trust.

Even then, it’s pretty hard to ensure that the source code is not malicious, except if it’s only a few lines.
