New disable sycalls antiban feture before signing in makes it so you can no longer use the Webman sycall delete combo in game while signing in with the game loaded, so now no games will mount after deleting sycalls at xmb to sign in

UPDATE: MUST HAVE new webman installed
To use with evilnat. Sycall combo works in games for signing in
