-> It was found some time ago that few of IRCnet's ircd's -> with +topic module can be rebooted by simply -> -> doing /quote TOPIC !etC (or-whatever !channel) -> -> This has been already mass-abused by 'EvIL MiRkhAx0rZ' -> -> and servers have been patched now... so time for it to go public since -> there is virtually no more threat left There were some bugs in ircd and/or patches which caused this. The new version of topic patch is available e.g. on http://nextra.irc.sk/download/ and it's not affected. -- Matus "fantomas" Uhlar, sysadmin at NEXTRA, Slovakia; IRCNET admin of *.sk uhlarat_private ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ ; http://www.nextra.sk/ Your mouse has moved. Windows NT must be now restarted for changes to take effect. Reboot ? (Y/N)
