    To set exceptions for McAfee see: http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/ques...wall%29#McAfee

    Instead of the files of the FAQ (which you may also add to the exceptions) add: blitz.dll and starscommunicator.hm2

    That doesn't do anything, McAfee still quarantines Blitz.dll as soon as I open HM2.

    Then uninstall McAfee...
    Temporarily install something like Microsoft Security Essentials (free)

    Default Impact of not having these 2 files

    What do these 2 files do?

    I would like to know the features that require them so I can decide whether I need them (I have Mcafee and there is no way to trust a file locally).

    The HM2 application seems to run without them so I assume they are dynamically loaded?

    Regards,

    James

    They are for zoom/fast-fold game HUDs. If you don't play these games HM2 should work fine without these files. We will have new/updated versions of these files again in our next release as well.

    If you play these games and use McAfee please disable the McAfee option shown in this image - 09.11.2014-12.24.41 - fozzy71's library

    This should be explained in parentheses in all of the FAQs. I just checked the Zoom FAQ and found it:

    (for the dll files, you have to type in the name in the file name box for a lot of firewalls)
