In short, unless you set up user accounts within chat, and require valid usernames, then no, there's nothing you can do to stop people from logging in a second time with a different username. I think I stressed a couple of times that the least anyone should do is to set up password protected accounts for admins and mods.
I was thinking about a solution for this, but with my chatroom, very occasionally people get disconnected while they remain logged in in the chat. By entering a different name they can always come back in. Any disconnected usernames will be released after 15 minutes I believe.
I also haven't had time yet to work on the "who's in chat". I'm really bothered by that, but I cant help it

Think that when it will be there, it will contain an option to keep people from firing up the thing twice.
And I can't help with the jpilot thing. I know nothing about it

The simplest tip I can give is:
suppose you build a html page within the forum structure to hold the chat room, then all the chat specific code that you normally put in the html page, can be placed within the chatbit template. Maybe with a little work, but all output by the forum is just html anyway. The chatbit template is inserted between <TD> tags
