Isolde, there's a couple of perfectly legitimate actions that apparently look[ed] to BNET servers as an attempt to cheat. E.g., for some time talking to Cain in Act 4 without having Mephisto's Soulstone in the inventory would result in an immediate drop with "Realm Down" message for 15-30 minutes (this is fixed now).
Another example: when refreshing my characters, I pretty often get dropped just for entering and leaving games in a rapid succession, and then would see "Realm Down" for some time.
There's also plenty of actions that reliably get you dropped when using Mac OsX client (TP'ing to town, moving between acts, etc).
Given that, I'm a bit sceptical about the statement that the hack detection has 0% false-positive rate.
