Start WPE up.
Start BattleZone2 up.
Alt Tab to WPE and double click "select game". Choose bzone.exe out of the list. (even if you are running FE)
Now double click Filter and load your BZ2 filter "bz2_av_filter_final.flt".
Check the box on the needed filter, then press the Enable button, which will light up red. If it is not activated, the protection is not on.
Alt Tab back to BZ2 and enjoy an intentional AV free game.
Note: You must close and restart WPE each time you restart BZ2 for the protection to remain working.

This filter is essentially obsolete now with a better method now known. It is easy for the host to determine who AVs him by a simple command and then ban him.

1. When you get AVed as server, do not close the error window. Read it to make sure it is a chat AV. Keep the error window open after this.

2. Use the command prompt of windows to type netstat -a. The AVer's IP will now be apparent to you, as long as you didn't close the BZ error window yet.

3. Now you simply enter that IP into your firewalls ban list to be free of the pest forever (well until his IP changes anyways).

The Chat Attack AV looks like this:
