Only works on Intel-based Macs with a Windows partition (via Boot Camp).

Does Cloud Gaming work?

No, keyboard presses through streaming software don't work.

Uninstall the anti-virus (AVG, ESET ...) or add L2Reborn/Smartguard files/folders as Anti-virus Exceptions. Antiviruses can disregard exceptions, uninstalling is recommended.

This forum post might help too.
