2. The size of the dll tells me that there is more logic in the dll than just to connect to a server. MegaDroid has a rather large dll and a small ex4. This combination seems to support the fact that most of the trading logic is in the dll not the ex4.

Remember that the MegaDroid only authenticates upon start up. Once the EA is running, it will be find until the next time it starts. There possibly could be a problem on start up if the MegaDroid server is down (and the backup if any) but it depends on the logic in the EA and the dll when the server is not available.

if i'm not wrong, it also check the robot version with the server? If there is a new version, we will know and have to upgrade?

And also, it calls for the windows time function. So we have to make sure our computer time is set correctly?
