We disbabled IRC last semester and received 1 complaint (out of 6000 students) Craig Hearn, David L. wrote:
Hello all, With the profusion of IRC related BOT exploits, we are researching an IRC\IM proxy implementation. Since these services do have legitimate usage, we are leery of disabling universally. We also believe a proxy would mitigate some of issues we are experiencing. If anyone out there has such a solution in production, and has any advice, documentation, or links regarding the process, issues and effectiveness, I would appreciate a jump-start. Thanks for your time and consideration.
