   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.
