BWHF Agent home page:
http://code.google.com/p/bwhf/

BWHF Agent runs in the background and automatically checks the last replays of Starcraft for hacks. It can be used as a launcher too. It requires Java Runtime Environment 6.0 or higher.

You can also run a check on any of your saved replays or on entire folders of replays (no BWChart required). It logs the results and if it finds a hacker in your last replay, it can bring its window to front or play an alert sound. It has replay autosave feature.

For those who possess a valid authorization key can report hackers automatically to a central hacker database.

You can read more about what these keys are and how to get one:
http://code.google.com/p/bwhf/wiki/AuthorizationKeys

You can list, search, filter, sort existing hackers online on this web page: BWHF Hacker data base
http://94.199.240.39/hackerdb/hackers

Pros compared to other launchers and detectors:
-This is not a 3rd party program! It does not modify Starcraft's memory and it does not interfere with Starcraft in any way so there is absolutely no risk of getting banned by Blizzard or any battle.net server for using it.
-Since it does not modify Starcraft's memory, it does not add new bugs and does not cause Starcraft to crash.
-It's a standalone program not some kind of dll or bw plugin, so you can use it ANYWHERE (iccup, normal battle.net servers, LAN w/e) with or without any launcher. BWHF Agent is a launcher itself.
-You can start and close it at anytime (before or after starting Starcraft, before of after logging in to battle.net, before or during a game).
-It does not belong to a specific Starcraft version therefore it works after Starcraft updates without modification.
-You can repeat the scan process after game, and you can scan old replays.
-You can scan recursively entire folders of replays.
-Does not require Starcraft or any other programs (like BWChart) to be running or even being installed.
-It can report hackers automatically to a central hacker database.
-It's open source therefore the risk of being/containing a malware/adware/virus is minimized (if you always download it from its original home page).

Cons:
-Scan runs after games (it won't tell you if someone's hacking during the game).

BWHF Agent 1.20 released

Changes since version 1.10:

-A new PCX converter tab which can convert your Starcraft PCX screenshot files to JPG, GIF, PNG or BMP image files. The tab has an auto converter feature which automatically converts your Starcraft screenshots so you don't have to do it manually. You will find the JPG (or PNG or GIF or BMP) screenshots in your Starcraft directory right away as if Starcraft would save the screenshots in JPG format (or in the format of your choice) in the first place.
-A new Game chat tab which can extract replay header information and game chat from replays and save them to text files.
-It is displayed if Starcraft folder is set correctly, and the 'Start/Switch to Starcraft' button is enabled based on that.
-Moved BWHFAgent.jar to the lib folder to avoid launching misunderstanding and added a BWHFAgent.exe starter program.
-Fixed an error which caused scanning a replay with no actions to fail.
-Fine-tuned the general multicommand hack detection to fix 2 false alerts.
-Updated the binary replay parser to recognize and parse game chat commands properly (which was introduced in Starcraft version 1.16).
