Alfred i noticed a funny behaviour yesterday with the sv_secure cvar (playin
with it before today's announcement). I had set it to 'sv_secure 1' in our
server.cfg, and that had no effect. In the server I checked it with 'rcon
sv_secure' and it returned a '0'. Then I used the command 'rcon sv_secure
1', and when the map changed the dialog box going into the next map was the
VAC2 dialog box, saying that the server was VAC2 protected and that cheating
would result in a permanent ban. And -vacbeta is not on our command line. I
dunno if it was really running, and next map load after that just showed the
normal non-VAC2 dialog box while loading. I repeated this 3 times and saw
the same behaviour each time at the next map load (showing VAC2 dialog box),
so it's easily reproducable.

Not a big deal, but wanted to pass it along anyway cause it seemed that
there might be a slight glitch somewhere in the code that you guys may wanna
check out.
