Or you can simply turn off hypergrid. It's pretty much insecure by design.

Long ago while tinkering around with the viewer logins I remember seeing mentions of an ID0 floating around thats sent to the login service as part of the login data packet. If I understood correctly, this is supposedly the UUID of the user's first hard drive - which in fact cannot be changed without physically replacing the drive itself (see http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Current_login_protocols).

Otherwise, they could always just create a new account, change their MAC address, etc. Of course, they can change their IP too but this is the most hassle.

One is to apologize to the grids that have been victim to this and to request that other grids do not restrict hypergrid access from my grid.. Also to start a discussion about steps to prevent this in the future.. I have been notified yesterday and this morning I have a griefer registering on the Virtual Realms Grid then going to other grids to grieve them.. I have take steps to ensure this does not happen anymore.. I have restricted new user creations to administrative approval till we have sort out a good practical preventive measure on this type of abuse. And would like to extend an apology to any grid that have been a victim to this by any of the grids users.. I will be looking at ways to prevent this from happening in the future.. To this end any suggestions to help grids prevent this from happening would be welcomed..
