I'm still watching and nothing's happened yet :)

I've found one that's relevant to this thread but I don't know if it's the  
same one you had in mind. Try doing a MsgID search for 4c120309 with  
OpenXP by cursoring over /FIDO/POINTS and then:

Message -> Search -> MessageID .....

See the very last sentence of my reply in that message.

If you can't find that message, let me know and I'll repost it.
