I think this is a good idea!

HIGH^5 Ivan *smiles*

They get Guest*.users.undernet.org on connect, this immediately hides the IP
of the user, then Services messages the user to login,  you log in (manually
or via a nifty client script), then your host is changed to your
username.users.undernet.org.

If the client does not reply within say 60 secs?, the guest* is dropped, and
your permitted to join/chat as you please as your real ip. The condition
here is that you can not join a channel/send msg's while you're a Guest* or
are dropped within 60 secs automatically of your guest* host if you just
fail to login or if you send a reply back say /msg services nomask ? then
you get dropped as Guest* and you can irc as you please.

This also gives other Services further time to scan for proxies/trojans and
the like within this 60 second bracket?

Probably not achievable in the short term, or probably not even feasible,
who knows, but *sounds* nice.

Thanks,

Larry
