There would need to be security on the system, but that can be done through a central authorisation server. I might have to look in to this actually - it would make vastly better streamers and existing plugins could be fit to it's architecture. It would also mean a better means of distribution of mods etc.

Would be nice to manage, like every client sided plugin would have a mutex or something and the server could disable and enable specified mutexes'

and for the tcp server and tcp client... do you have a nice link (except ******.com or any other search engines) where some tuts are located about c++ networking?
