If I'm in any channel on an IRC server, I can PM anyone in that channel. However, is it possible to PM someone if I know their nick, but am not in the same channel as them, possibly not in any channel at all (but still connected to the server)\n\nI run Debian Linux, my usual IRC client is Kopete, however I'd like an answer for how to do this on all platforms.

There should be a way for you to block the other user.  I did it today.  When you put your mouse over each individual name does a box pop up? If so, on the bottom of the box does it say "you appear online to this member"? or something else if something else use the drop down box to change it to the setting you like.  OR  Try right clicking on the persons name and go to "stealth settings"  and click on Permanently offline.  If you need more direction let me know

Boy do I hear you!  I used to use the chat rooms alot back in the beginning of my computer useage, but it became such a hassle to sort thru who was for real and who were 'posers' just out to cause issues with you that I had to stop.  I have not had any chatting for a long time now.  Good luck, and best regards.

download "cc proxy"  software by searching in google.install it on on both client.set ip address wich is your server has.this software can also shares a broadband connection which is works on ip address.\nand in a yahoo messenger go to conncetion and also give name of server and ip address to so it can works.u can also us NETOP software to send message on each pc on screen.

It is almost certainly not due to your conversations being watched.  If an IM Content scanner is in use you would have absolutely no idea since it would be on a spam port off a switch somewhere in your network\n\nYour problem is most likely due to some network oc PC issue.

Could always use a remote client such as Tight vnc, its pretty good, works with windows and unix. Just be careful which ports you leave open ;-)\n\nphil\n\nps. its open source

I use it.  It's a more GUI version of MIRC.  All you have to do is go through the list of servers available, click on the ones you want to join, and it automatically joins you to them.  If you want, right click on them and add them as favorites (or in each window, type /fav).  These favorite servers will automatically connect next time you open the program instead of having to go and find them every time.  The only other "difficult" thing is to open the search window and search for files.  I assume you've used some file-sharing programs before, so this shouldn't be a problem.

This person doesnt need your messenger anymore. More then likely if you ever had even a single conversation with her. She pinged you to find out your IP. You say you have a firewall, but more then not firewalls are not too hard to get around. Your best bet is a router. Your attacks are probabaly coming through an open port as well. You need to do a port scan and see where your vunerabilities are coming from. Secondly, I will tell anyone if you want to avoid attacks a router is the best way to go. A firewall will at most kinda of block a person to get through the wall. But with the right trick and coding the computer can be tricked into thinking the attack is a friendly or ok item to let pass. and boom your in. \n\nSomehow get your IP address changed, if you have to call your ISP and have that done. If your attacks are still going then you have to get more drastic, but more then likely she will not be able to link again as long as you dont communicate with her. A instant message gives her a direct link to you, all she has to do then is ping ya.\n\n----------------\nAs I see things has already been sent to you as an answer. Firewalls are not going to be your answer. Oh yeah and another thing ZoneAlarm is the absolute worst firewall program out there on the internet, next to BlackIce... Zonealarm is hacked way to easily. .. you dont have to take my advice.. but i have fixed many a freinds computers after they had been done in even while using ZoneAlarm.

your ip address is able to be found , and so is mine, and everyone elses, but unless you are on a static ip, i would not worry so much. as for finding your real identity,  not by ip address(providing your are on a dynamic ip). just be careful as to exactly how much personal info(name, birthdate, where you live, etc) that you actually put out on the net.

There are differences between chat servers but basically the hosts of the channel are the only ones that can boot/kick people from the channel. If you are having problems with a childish host booting people for no reason the easiest solution is for you just to make another channel where you are host and just have everyone move there. Some chat servers are more secure than others one reason my friends use the chat at Buzzen.com the script kiddies have no power there

Well said that man... why do they have to butt in? I saw some of the replies to your last question about chat.  If they dont want to chat then why answer?  Mind you, looks like you got a few offers there, any of them come off?\nNow we have lost chat rooms where it was easy to pop in and find someone to talk to, this seems a good place to start a convo, so GOOD LUCK mate

Most of the time you'll be able to lodge a complaint with the operators of the chatroom. They should be able to help with the problem. Apart from that it usually isn't that easy to get the address of a person and you need to provide more details of what kind of chatroom it is, etc.
