BetaFix

BetaFix lets you enjoy Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 with working authentication, skins and capes! BetaFix does not rely on a third party proxy, everything is fixed client-side.

The bigest drawback of methods that rely on third party proxies is that you as a user do not have control over the proxy. With BetaFix you can verify and build the mod yourself!
