Some russian site that discovered rune images in the past has posted new videos where they show their progress in hacking new release installer! Those guys are propably as crazy as blizzard.
I would assume that if they got a fake beta server to get the client to talk to, that they could just use the same server to get the installer to think the game has been released. Won't matter much until Blizzard releases the encryption codes, or somebody finds a way to bypass them =D
Love the fact that they keep the sc2 way of installing with telling you the story pic by pic with probably awesome music.
If thet manage to datamine some stuff from it, i wonder if i will be looking at it or not, spoiling the story can lessen the enjoyment of enjoying the story in game.
Yeah, on their website they said. "Мы получили релизный клиент и уже пытаемся заставить установщик верить в то, что D3 уже вышел. Смогли убедить говорить что мы хотим и предать Blizzard, начав установку клиента. Увы, шифровального ключа пока нет и установка завершается неудачей."
"We received a release version the client and the installer is trying to make believe that D3 is already out. Were able to convince that we want to talk and to bring Blizzard, began the installation of the client. Alas, there is no encryption key and installation fails."

EDIT: they posted some kind of funny image: http://s1.hostingkartinok.com/uploads/images/2012/03/c453d338b015677c4fbcf2c13b243b94.png
EDIT: Another picture: http://s1.hostingkar...61e5f50fcfc.png
imagine if they can get all video, lore,...
but what they did isnt a big deal due to no code, they cant get anything to install, once that happens, then we'll talk
edit: but the install pics I like
I like the install picture as well.

For the hackers it's all about the challange...Blizz just threw a big one at them.

So wait, no encryption key?
