Live agent multiple sessions possible per customer/device

Hello all,

i have a problem i'd like to fix, perhaps somebody can help me.

Our company has Live Agent deployed. Works just fine, except for one thing: A customer on our external website can currently open a chat multiple times, creating multiple sessions. This way our service professionals are blocked for other customers. Is there any known way to prevent this from happening?

Use Pre-Chat form with CAPTCHA to avoid multiple sessions. This results into single session per user per device.
