Subject: psyBNC2.3 Beta - encrypted text "spoofable" in others irc terminal Hello, thanks for reporting that problem. I will solve this by appending a key checksum to the end of each line. Example: [B]text text text <1255> The key checksum is part of the encrypted text. If it doesnt match for the user, he can be sure the text is spoofed. Filtering special characters is no good solution for that problem. It would need a full parse of every line entered, this would consume too many resources. The fix will be released soon. Greetings, psychoid
