The two major servers are Schthack and Ultima. Schthack seems to be the more popular one, but I think I'm going to actually go with Ultima for this, as the Schthack install seems to make AVG go crazy. I've done some Googling, and it appears that AVG finds a false-positive it doesn't like, and while that may be true, I don't like the idea of making anti-virus exceptions. So if anyone else is interested on playing on the Ultima server this coming month all info you need is at phantasystaronline.net.
I have Schthack installed. We need to decide which one we are using so we can get ready. I'm pumped for this game.

I uninstalled my Schthack. Honestly, even if I'm assured it's a false-positive, I just built this PC a couple months ago and seeing AVG flag it as having a trojan scared the crap out of me. So I'm leaning towards Ultima myself. I mean, we can obviously have some guys playing on Schthack and some on Ultima I guess. To each his own.

What's the diff?
Let strength be granted, so the world might be mended...so the world might be mended.

Noise's AVG said Schthack had a virus, Avira (which I use) did not. I think they both are the same program just different servers. I just downloaded Ultima so I will double check this later. It would be cool if we all use the same server to play together.

I don't like the idea of turning my antivirus off to play the game. Maybe I should switch to something other than AVG if anyone has any good suggestions?

I use Avira (free) and it seems to be one of the least resource heavy free program. It does have pop-up ads asking you to buy it when it updates but that is not too annoying for such a smooth running program.
