well...I was going to say the same thing as far as code is concerned.

BUT I did see a slight security problem just a while ago. I picked up a user name on my world.exe. I find that really interesting given that I am behind a firewall. I can't even get on my own server so how could someone else get on?

The user is tyco and was trying to get into qeynos zone (I believe). At the time I had no zones running (on purpose) and tyco got a zone down message. I have no idea how tyco, if such a user actually existed, seem to be trying to access my system.

The "tyco" message worries me somewhat. I also see where at some point there is an attempt by the login server to enter a user in my database based on my login name for frags and no password. This means that somehow my private IP is getting transmitted and hooked into something.

I am not even close to being a security expert, but the behaviors this afternoon seem very strange.
