Don't use gets, use fgets instead - it allows you to define a maximum string 
length (but you'll have to strip the newline yourself).
Make sure your string is properly defined:
char s[80];
or
char *s;
s = malloc(256);
if (s==NULL)
   return 1;
 
or something with new s[] or whatever, but you'll have to ask someone who 
programs in C++ for the details :-)
