SMSG_ACCOUNT_DATA_TIMES

Client Version 1.12, Client Version 2

The purpose of this message is unknown, but it is required in order to prevent the chat box from being a white rectangle that is unable to show text.

Sending this causes the client to send CMSG_UPDATE_ACCOUNT_DATA messages.

CMSG_UPDATE_ACCOUNT_DATA and CMSG_REQUEST_ACCOUNT_DATA act on blocks numbered 0 to 7. The 32 u32s in this message could possibly actually be 8 sets of u816 but it could also be a variable sized message.
