Soon after the "Halo 2" leak, the forums at halo.bungie.org were closed so the experience wouldn't be ruined come November.

"I was expecting to get all sorts of hate mail, but instead I've had hundreds of letters from people saying thank you, you've helped keep us pure," said Claude Errera, a 38-year-old from Bethany, Conn., who runs the popular fan site.

Fans helped track and curb the spread of the pirated versions of "Half-Life 2" and "Halo 2."

Jarrard credited incensed fans and community policing efforts for informing Bungie about Web sites hosting the illegal "Halo 2." The leak certainly hasn't affected sales — Microsoft said more than 1.5 million copies of the Xbox (news - web sites) exclusive have been pre-ordered.
