Good ol' homegrown americans don't have names that start with 'X'.
Xavier. :P
You know how long I thought Xihn and Xihnuan were the same person, using dif names on dif sites? It made total sense to my American head that Xihn was a shortened nickname for Xihnuan. *facepalm*
I started using that one a while ago. I can say it's easy and efficient for helping me keep my addons up to date without grabbing false or locale updates. I highly recommend it to anyone who has no need for or desire to learn to use an svn client.
Why would anyone ever launch an executable file from within an archive they expect to contain a WoW addon?
Well, although there is more than one, the one that started this topic is labeled "WoWACE Updater." There are a lot of folks out there who'd like their crack back.
As far as other .exe-containing "addons" and their users, they're likely uneducated and never bothered learning what they are downloading and what it should contain.
I don't know if this has already been addressed, but when I login, I can't see any chat, general, guild, anything, in any of the frames.. it apparently is still being transmitted as my friends say they can see me type "test" constantly.. but I don't see anything. If i right click on the tabs, everything is unchecked with no colors at all everytime i login.
You might want to read over the last couple of pages in this topic. We've found multiple non-Prat causes for issues with losing chat. Laibcoms also outlined a process for resetting your saved variables and so on that can help you eliminate Prat as the cause of the issue.
There isn't one (unless it was added in the last day or so). ClearFont2 seems to be the only addon reliably changing all of the fonts if you are using Fortress.
Sylv suggested Carbonite is your culprit. If you disable it and don't join extra channels, that would confirm that's the mod putting you into those channels. As far as how to make it stop? No idea. I don't use it.
I originally started playing WoW at the encouragement of someone that I was seeing, and rolled Alliance. I rolled Horde just to fiddle around some when I wasn't playing WoW with him. He's long since moved on, and I met some great folks and stayed Horde-side.

Yes, I did eventually figure this out.

I am so glad you didn't add 'And we're hungry!' to that one. ;)
