I have recently designed a new WPE filter that will block those undesired announcements and I'll have to talk to Nimrod about updating his previous net filter. On a sub related subject: I have not yet tested this theory, but I believe that adding the IP to the jj2 banlist will not stop the announcements because of the bad way JJ2 handles packets. Some other programs (not telling the names) use this exploit as well to bypass IP bans.
