Research direction

The payload names no files or entry points, only a screenshot and a report that World of Warcraft freezes at the character select screen. Start by reproducing it with Windhawk and WoW installed, then find which enabled mod hooks into the game process. Done means the conflict is identified and either fixed or documented with a reproduction. The thread has been quiet for 45 days and has no assignee or linked pull request.
