Weird -- from what I can tell, ALLFIX 5.13 doesn't have this bug.

ALLFIX 6.0 also had that memory/crash issue that I couldn't resolve; I'd
love to see a new version that had the memory issues fixed and could write
directly to Synchronet 3.x file areas. I'd venture a guess that a good
portion of the BBS systems running today are Mystic and Synchronet, and I
think Mystic has its' own TIC support built in.



... It is quite possible (after all)
