Also, if you want to test the server load manually, just go to spy.php?do=xml and reload as fast as you can (or setup a process to hit it continuously). That is the underlying AJAX call used to get new events.

It's easy. Find plugin "Add Spy Link To Navigation" where you call link to it and use this condition around calling spy.php:

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo,5,6,7)">

Now plugin should look like:

$template_hook['navbar_community_menu_end'] .= '<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo,5,6,7)"><li><a href="spy.php' . $session['sessionurl_q'] . '" target="_blank">' . $vbphrase['spy'] . '</a></li></vb:if>';

Of course, 5,6,7 are usergroups you want to allow access.
