Main Features
DCCALLOW - A new system that prevents the spread of executable or dangerous scripts without the permision of the user recieving them. The DCCALLOW system prevents transmission of "exe", "com", "bat", "dll", "ini", "vbs", "pif", "mrc", "scr", "doc", "xls", "lnk", "shs", "js" and "pl".
Glines/SGlines - These add the ability to deny a client connecting based on their realname or the GCOS field. SGlines are the services place equivilant.
Part/Quit message squelching on +m channels - This is in, but may change before 1.6. It needs user feedback. Basically if you can't send to a channel (You are banned or you it's moderated), you can't send a part message and the ircd parts you before you quit.
Szlines - Services based Zlines - Deny a client from connecting based on IP address. Client is accepted, message printed, and dropped. No structures ever allocated. This is good for those pesky akill evaders using vhosts.
Chanmode +O - Oper only channel - Designed for certain "sensitive" channels users manage to slip into during splits.
