A new version 1.31 patch is now available for the retail version of Battlefield
1942, Digital Illusions' World War II shooter. The update
fixes a crashing problem with co-op mode, removes the default remote admin
password to prevent exploits, fixes wall hack exploits as well as an exploit
that allowed players to hide within objects, and more. It is noted that
SoundBlaster Audigy owners will need to turn on hardware sound acceleration due
to an issue that remains in the patch. The 47 MB file can be found on
