Thank You again PWIZARD,CALIBER for your dedicated service on the new 12/07 in heaven trainer. :

I dunno if it's just me, but the 12/07/09 trainer doesn't seems to work for me. here's what I do:

1. Boot up trainer
2. Boot up game
3. At game main menu, Pressing F1 to activate
4. In-game, trying Numpad hotkey.
5. Nothing happens.

No AV activities either btw... so not detected as unwanted program or virus.
The game is up-to-date.

turn on your numlock and f-lock keys. disable av, etc.

Numlock and f-lock was already on. Earlier trainer was perfectly working with or without AV.
I could hear the "Activated" and "On", "Off" Sound effects.

As with the last version I hear the "Trainer Activated" and when I press the keypad buttons I hear "ON" or "OFF". This works with the latest Steam version of the game at of 12/7/09. Curious if you have anti virus running, if so look in its logs and check to see if anything in the memory is being blocked. McAfee has the ability to do that I an made an exception/rule allowing open access for all the games I play.

My only problem with Steam remains that I can't turn off auto updates. When I turn it off it appears to stick but when I check back later its back on again. Not sure if that's the trainer or just Steam, I'll say its wonky Steam interface stuff.

Works fine for me as well in the latest steam auto-patch. I get the activated sounds and the effects they provide.

My guess is you can't turn off auto-updates for "online only" games.
