    That's why you should always disable your anti-virus software when installing a game, just like it says so in the manual! ;)

    Merry X-Mas!

    Yes, it's safe.

    gamespy is safe.

    however, its not required for halo 1. there is an in game browser that finds the same servers (i believe)

    by the way, halo 1 pc rocks and a ton of people still play.
