    Platform: OSX
    Category: KAG Client
    Build number: Unknown, sorry. I downloaded the binary from the website today, March 22nd
    MD5 (kagbeta-mac32-client.zip) = ddb883302b56663217757dc24d540bcd

    I moved KAG.app into /Applications/KingAuthorsGold.app, since I launch via search, and KAG isn't actually a memorable name.
    When I launch it, it proceeds to scan files that don't belong to it!

    As you can see, the KAG app has opened FDs for files in my VirtualBox.app, and before that it was looking in iChat.app. KAG has no reason at all to be looking in there to determine if it can update. This is actually kind of scary

    Here's another screenshot:

    This happens every time the game starts. It says something about checking which files need updating.
    It hangs after eating many GB of ram, so I don't know what happens after it finishes searching.

    If I place it in a folder by itself, it doesn't go up to scan things, and ends with an error about a bad checksum, and tells me to re-download the client.

    I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at.

    There were the proper screenshots before, but they seems to be overwritten.
