Bug Description
mirc's flood protection works by sending a ping to the server and waiting for an answer before sending a few more lines and another ping
the irc server normaly delays all msgs including the ping while your flooding causing a small buffer to fill up and once its filled you will flood out
ctrlproxy answers the ping asap causing mirc to think theres no flood protection in effect and it dumps everything to ctrlproxy at once
then ctrlproxy seems to just dump it all at once to the network causing me to flood out
and mirc sends enough to flood out just by connecting to the ctrlproxy even with all scripts shut off(proble a flood of /topic/names cmds)

I don't know why, but I've never got "excess flood" while using mirc+nnscript with ctrlproxy. I agree that ctrlproxy should act like a normal ircserver.. You could test some other client, xchat for example.
