If you take a look at the TID above, it looks like he just upgraded to the
latest sources of sbbsecho, which has been worked on quite a bit this past week
or two.. so there may be some new bugs, or a bad (or invalid with the new
changes) config.

Either way, "hoping this was an accident" is kind of stupid. Why in the hell
would he (or anyone these days) have done it on purpose?

Regards,
Nick
