How to block dlfile downloads in CS 1.6
Type sv_allow_dlfile 0 in the server console so players cannot request files by name with dlfile. Map downloads still work.
sv_allow_dlfile

What it does
When on, a connected player can ask the server for a specific file by name with dlfile. This is separate from the automatic download of missing map content. Set it to 0 if you do not want players pulling arbitrary game files from your server.
Run it on your server
On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to cstrike/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS 1.6 server first.
