One can never be sure, but I suspect this is not do to a bug but to a
fixture.
WoW Has a all chain of checks that go up all the way to rootkit reveler
to make sure the user is not aided by an automatic system, Given the
player an advantage other players do not have. The Memory layout checks
is for making sure the program is not loaded by a Debugger of sorts. Or
that core Dll(s) where not replaced/hooked/emulated.
It is possible that approaching Blizzard might be helpful. Is WoW
supported by Cedega?
