Here, you can configure the CTCP flood protection system.[br]
|
||
|
The CTCP engine in IRC clients may be subject to an attack, called "CTCP flooding".[br]
|
||
|
Basically, the attackers (usually there is more than one offending client) sends a stream
|
||
|
of CTCP requests to the victim's client, and the client attempts to respond to all requests
|
||
|
by sending a stream of replies to the server, which causes the server to disconnect the user
|
||
|
due to "excess flood" for sending too many messages before the server can process them.[br]
|
||
|
Many user defined scripts choose to completely ignore all the CTCP requests in order to prevent such attacks.[br]
|
||
|
KVIrc offers an alternative method that allows you to take advantage of the CTCP protocol
|
||
|
and at the same time prevent the flood attacks.[br]
|
||
|
The method is really simple: The client will only respond to a limited number of CTCP requests within a
|
||
|
specified time interval.[br]
|
||
|
The "Use flood protection" option enables this protection method.[br]
|
||
|
In the "Allowed up to" field you should enter the maximum number of CTCP requests that KVIrc should
|
||
|
respond to within the interval of time defined in the second field.[br]
|
||
|
A strong protection against floods would be replying to 4 requests every 20 seconds.[br]
|
||
|
The minimum effective setting is about 3 messages every 6 seconds.[br]
|
||
|
Please note that 3 messages every 6 seconds is NOT the same as 10 messages every 20 seconds;
|
||
|
the first setting would allow 3 requests within one second, but the client would
|
||
|
ignore all the requests for the next 5 seconds, the second setting would allow 10 messages within one second
|
||
|
and ignore everything for the next 19 seconds. Therefore, 3/6 is a safer setting.[br]
|
||
|
The maximum protection you can set is 0 messages within any number of seconds; in that case any
|
||
|
CTCP request will be considered a flood and ignored.[br]
|
||
|
[br][br]
|
||
|
You can also decide to ignore specific CTCP requests. For example, if you don't want to reply to PING
|
||
|
requests, just select "PING" under the "Ignored Requests" section.[br]
|
||
|
[br][br]
|
||
|
Some specific protection options can be set also in other CTCP options sections:

||
|
