Flood Error - Kicking when bad character recieved.

Ok, will give increasing ctcp-flood a go. Currently its set to 1:60, which would explain why it didnt trigger everytime.

Thanks very much for solving the mystery fellas

this is perceived by eggdrop as CTCP flood since those funky characters have probably somehow embedded ASCII 1 in them

i didnt see one at first, but you are right, there is one single \001 character between 'disk2' and 'ÿþ5'. I looked only at the beginning of the hex code the first time .

Alternitive solution: get a better script and/or change the filename .

Its odd. It was recreatable by 3 users, but i couldny do it.

Completely gone over my head. Never seen tis before either.

I think it is an mirc thing thoi. Coming from the ID3 tag into mirc, it does get a bit weird. But why it even has this effect i dont know.

strange strange, but I cant recreate the error, but it seems the unicode character have not been copied properly.
never heared about such a behavior before.

None at all.

I dont use scripts that cause that. Any kick scripts i do have rely on op access to activate them, which that user doesnt have. To check, i removed a couple of scripts not written by me, and asked him to try again.

Same reaction happened. Its very weird. Unfortunately i use a non unicode irc client (Klient) and i cannot see what is actually causing it.

This was picked up from partyline with debug mode on.

From what i can tell, it might be a colour flag? Very odd

do you have any scripts installed that kick with the reason "flood"? I somehow doubt this the internal flood control. eggdrop (or better its TCL enviroment) should be able to autosense common unicode encodings.

For some reason, whenever he says this in chan, she will kick him. Whether its a /me, normal text, pm, notice or /ctcp. She will kcik him for the same reason regardless.

I know they generally dont do unicode very well, and some japanese characters are in this somewhere, but what could be causing this and how can i fix it?
