GuildWatch: PC Plugin

About

The GuildWatch: PC plugin allows the GuildWatch plugin on the wiki to safely interact with your computer. This in turn allows it to offer more advanced functionality, such as the ability to move images from one name to another in a few seconds.

For those who are interested, it is currently written in the micro-scripting language AutoIt until I can be bothered to port it to an actual language (which may never happen).


Download

If you wish to make use of the GuildWatch PC Plugin, you must download it. To launch the download, GuildWatch must already be installed on your Guild Wars Wiki account - if you launch the download and nothing happens, check that you are running the latest version of GuildWatch.

Note: The program will be streamed from my server in the form of a .exe file. If you do not trust it, be sure to virus-scan it first. Note that the program will require access to the internet.
