Make sure you also have sv_workshop_allow_other_maps 0 otherwise someone may be 
able to load a malicious map onto the server.

TCP can be spoofed? I thought that was true for UDP.

I have had similar server hijackings in the past, this plugin helped. Blocking 
off rcon by using rcon_password "" or disabling TCP altogether might have same 
effects but you cant use sourcebans or gameme/hlstatsx after that.

Whitelisting home connections is rather pointless since the majority have 
dynamic IP addresses that constantly change. Then there's the problem that IP 
addresses can be easily spoofed.

Yeah excuse me on that, I work with all sorts of routers that use HTTP and TCP 
interchangeably in the firmware and wasn't thinking.
