Wait, so they don't need kernal-level access? Ridiculous.

Eh, userspace has some limitations that cheaters can circumvent more easily if they get their hands beyond it.

Kernel-space ACS is not going to stop you if you're motivated enough, though, and at some point it becomes more of a hassle to deal with for the legitimate player than it is for the cheater.
Like those websites/services with password requirements so insane it's actually difficult for you to cook up an actually good one.
