Not with any real certainty.      You could stop script kiddies by
scrutinizing the viewer string when the viewer logs in to the user
service..   but, determined developers who understand the protocol can
cause their hacked viewer to report whatever they want for the version
string.    It's not very difficult to do..    much like the browser
reports the user agent...    the viewer reports the name and version.

If you really wanted to try to stop Cryo..     try to figure out
something that it, uniquely does.     See if you can discover a
pattern..
If you can, then detect the pattern and scramble the user's inventory,
turn them into a stick bug, and send every texture as a missing image:
:).     I'm sure they won't log-in again if they encounter that.

Regards
