Fixed several issues with notifications
Fixed text color display problem in chat window

Implemented chat room spam control. If a user attempts to spam a chat room, the spam isn’t received by the people in attendance, and they will receive the message: “You have attempted to send too many messages within a short amount of time.Please wait before you send another message.” Spamming a chat room will result in a permanent (non-appealable) ban from the Xfire network

The Xfire installer’s EULA has been updated to reflect the removal of OpenCandy (i.e. that section has been removed from the EULA)
