It still is not obvious, to me at least, why solving or at least highly limiting the spoofing of this is difficult. I don't have the SDK at work, so I can't check anything atm, but I am still working on HL1 so I'm wondering if there has been any major changes to the networking code for HL2. I think it's at least as spoofable as people seem to have similar issues.
