????????? "Illegal Activities"???

Hi all... This isn't a thread to talk about me getting banned or anything like that, I'm just confused... (once again...) Sometimes when I'm playing Maplestory, a ban for "Illegal Activities" or something pops up, saying that I need to restart the game in order to keep playing??? This happened once in Lubridium, I believe, once in Minar Forest, and twice in Root Abyss. A few minutes ago. With me using 2x Exp and Drop buffs... T_T... (main reason I'm making this thread... losing my buffs D: ) Now, you have no reason to believe me, and I'm not asking you to, but I'm not engaging in any illegal activities. I have a video on pause, Pandora radio, a trivia website, and some guides up. And Maplestory, of course, as well as, the only reason I can think of triggering the "Illegal Activity" notice, Virus Protection in the background... But it's still popping up. So, I'd like to know, is anyone seeing this? Or is it just me? And is this a glitch? Since I can continue playing... which I'm glad about, since I haven't done anything wrong, that I know of... T_T If anyone has any info, please let me know. Thank you!

    Pierre and Queen's chests are currently causing this message to appear when hit. This is a known issue.

    If you've seen this happening with any other bosses, please post in the bug report thread here.

    Hm... I remember this happening to me on Pink Bean (character) when fighting an elite boss in Gold Beach (last map before the boss whatever it's called).

    Well, seems like I just don't use drop buffs (outside familiars) while I do RA.

    Wait. The "illegal activities" message doesn't happen if you don't have a drop buff on?

    I read it as "If I use a drop buff while doing RA, it's gonna get lost when I dc". Would be funny if that were the case though lol. Like Nexon wants us to lose our drop buffs to disconnections (December flashbacks).

    It seems to be a recurring theme that pops up because of gameguard or blackcipher. It'll probably happen much more, so get used to it?
