I got banned for using CCleaner and/or playing a custom map? [Game: CS:GO]

[grimmy]

So, i was normally playing custom maps with my best friend TheMooskyFish while i had CCleaner turned on. I was getting a few errors about VAC Authentication error... I thought that was a glitch, so i rejoined the game. And, after like 10 minutes, i was banned.. Why?

Posting this a few days later because i really want to know why that happened...

Also, yes, i do have an alt account which i use to play CS:GO, but i really want to know why did i get VAC banned for using a program/playing a custom map...

plus the vac on my profile looks ugly >.>

Ccleaner does not cause bans.

Vac detects known cheat signatures .

175 days is a few days?

Well, if it indeed doesn't cause vac bans, then it's probably the custom map i was playing.

I don't have any "cheating" programs, i never had ones, i never will have ones. I'm a fair player. plus, wouldn't i have more games vac banned if i really cheated?

Well, yeah, last time i posted a discussion about vac, people just claimed i hacked... Even though, i had a virus, so i fixed that problem. But i got a new pc now, so there's no way i can get another virus.

Lots of people only cheat in one main game

Common causes
Cheats
core files modded
thirdparty programs that alter/interact with the game
playing on unsafepc's
letting others use the account
family or ph number sharing with an account that's done one of the above .

telling cheaters how they got caught would only teach them how to hide. For that reason, no detail info will be given.

NEVER !!!!!!!!!

cheaters already know that lol

Cheating, never...
Core files modded, nah, i don't even know how to do that.
tp programs that alter/interact with the game.. nope, i only have steam on when i play valve games.
play on unsafe pc's...i only play on 1 pc and that's the one i'm using to comment on discussions right now, i only have a pc and a ps4 so i never used "an another pc".
letting others use this account, my account is well protected, so no one can access it, nor play on it, the account is mine for a reason, only me to play on it, not letting others play.
and i don't understand what you mean on the last one, explain it further please.

Oh, really? I would cheat, even though i have 91 GAMES BROUGHT, AND I USE THIS ACCOUNT AS MY MAIN ONE, AND I HAVE LEVEL 18 ON THIS ACCOUNT, SO WOULD I REALLY CHEAT ON THIS ONE? NO, I WOULD BUY ANOTHER ACCOUNT IF I REALLY WANTED TO CHEAT.

Also, i have expensive items for TF2, so would i really just cheat and never have access to them? NO! because i'm not that retarded for god's sake.

That means, valve needs to fix their garbage VAC system and there will be less threads per day. But no, all they care about is money.

nothing to fix. vac works great. bans a lot of cheaters as you can see in this forum.

have a nice day.

Yeah, vac works great, my a$$. Then why do i still see hackers that are still hacking in csgo, and still didn't get a ban? Explain that.

vac is delayed till month's to make cheaters think they are safe.

You seem to have missed the point in all this. A cheat signature was detected running at the time of connecting to a VAC server (or game file tampering).

Perhaps you were cheating on an alt account and forgot it was running? Anyway basically no one here cares. Valve isn't here.
