  • ideas to get script kiddies off the system

    I was thinking could we have a simple math question asked as an optional feature like 5x5 , 9/3 or 5+5? If after 3 tries the person would be disconnected in the new user application.

    Kinda like that I have for my login screen on my WINServer system :)
    Not sure if there is a "matrix login mod" capability with Mystic. I
    really liked your idea when you presented it to the WINServer community,
    so I write the mod and incorporated it into my MAIN.WCC/.WCX file :)
