[gabba2008]

Hi,

 

I wanted to know if anyone can help me, I run a small chatbot on my server.The thing is I now have some idiot with a proxy dropping the bell code ascii 7. this does my head in because they do not just drop it once but up to 50 Bells per hit

 

I wanted to know if there was any way off adding code to my script to stop this and if anyone knows the code,the script was made for me but I have lost contact

 

I found this out ascii 7

 

Decimal  Octal  Hex    Binary        Value

007        007    007    00000111      BEL    (Bell)

              // from outside the client.

  4.

     

  5.

              // Define strings we want to strip.

  6.

              $strings = array (

  7.

                      "\x07", // "Beep"

  8.

                      );
