I had lost all my data and info on the serverlist and how i had recreated it beforehand, and that's when i found what i found. At first i thought that even Microsoft wouldn't go to this low of a level, but after rechecking i was shocked. This will probably be all denied but inside of halo 2 is a loop that goes every once and awhile to some "Advertising Sites" like Http://turn.com or http://zedo.com and http://ru4.com. When i saw that these were in there i was like "LOLWUT" the funniest part of it all was they tried to hide this information by combining the websites url forwards and backwards Ex.(moc.evil + live.com). here is a like that has the data straight from the memory (http://pastebin.com/zTi9zPvG), So i want to hear from GFWL why they are putting *** like this inside of there games and then say that its a persons fault that there games are lagging, when its in fact the game going to a bunch of advertisers for money.
