ello, I run mIRC on msn chat... which is a bit of a pain but thats besides the point, ANY WAYS I dont know any thing about eggdrop or even what kind of client it is, if its not something you can personaly edit I'd have to agree in saying you should get a more secure bot, if this is something you can edit the coding in then switching $nick where it recognizes names for $ial($nick).addr might work... well thats how it works on msn atleast, I'm a bit ignorant about other servers... if it does work you'll have to switch it out in more than just the coding thats ownering the person...

I gotta ask though do you have your self in the auto op list and if so what command line did you use to add your self?
