1.6.9 Bot has worked fine for months, now when I try to DCC chat I only get the "Waiting for acknowledgement" prompt. When I access another bot on the botnet and .relay to the one that has the problem, i then watch as I try to DCC chat again. It see's the chat request:

CTCP DCC: CHAT chat from DrTongue`

but nothing happens and then on the .relay connection i get a "Password timeout for DrTongue`" message while still getting the "Waiting" prompt in the DCC window. I will keep trying then anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes later it will finally work.

Check if u have a bind ctcp * in a tcl script and the proc returns 0 for people who have access to the partyline

For info
I have put a
if {[validuser $hand]} {return 0}
in my tcl script that checks ctcp.

Thank you, I will check that ASAP. It DOES only happen on a bot that has a few more .tcl's than the others on the bot-net. Thanks again.
