    Bill,
    
    Back in the day, I was a scripter for mIRC and I built a back door into
    my script so that with a /msg command I could totally control the other
    person's mIRC program.  I could make them say anything I wanted to, make
    them send me a free FServe to their C drive, I could even delete files
    if I wanted to.  If you want, I should have a copy of the script
    somewhere, I could E-Mail you a copy.
    
    thanX,
    Joel
