Is there a easy way to turn off the "If you are having problems connecting due to ping timeouts, please type /quote pong 45C45823 or /raw pong 45C45823 now." message when a user connects?

Compile without nospoof on linux
On windows... No, there isnt, nospoof is very important

It is a option in ./Config [edit: off by default]
It prevents IP spoofing (Unnessecary on nix I think) and HTTP proxy clone attacks

Correct. Assuming you are not using an >4 year old OS: Linux, FreeBSD and stuff are all safe.
Windows is absolutely not and I can spoof "any" IP I want within a few seconds till a few minutes depending on my connection speed :P.
