I hate anti-cheat software, because I had a lot more trouble with it than I had with cheaters.
After all, anti-cheat software is meant to solve just one problem (people modifying the technology), but there are other ways too to destroy the gaming experience of the other players (teamkilling, wasting resources, deconstructing buildings, etc.).
All those problems are not being solved by anti-cheat software. But the tools to solve them (IP-range banning, server-lockdown to known/trusted players, etc.), are also quite good at solving the cheater problem. In my experience, having a good admin community is a lot better than playing the cat and mouse game of developing an anti-cheat software.
