Now now, Ron, he didn't say that it actually caused a crash! Don't go starting nasty rumors! He was just wondering about the bug.... you know, the setsockopt() bug ? Oh yah, *THAT* bug! Or maybe it was the other bug, but the other bug is more obscure so I'm sure he meant THE bug. There was a third bug, but it was debunked... he could have meant the good 'ol debunked-bug, which has a very distinctive name so it should be obvious to everyone which one I mean. Sorry, couldn't resist :-) -Matt
