   Interesting... I still run a copy of WINServer and any time I read ANSI on   
   that BBS it's messed up, pushes the header up.  Recently MRO, a Synchronet   
   SysOp was complaining that there was a hidden clear screen code within my ANSI   
   ad... This could explain the headers disappearing... I have finally had that   
   come to Jesus moment with WINServer... May delete it forever... But Synchronet   
   puzzles me So... Rob et. al. actively works on that project and you'd think   
   that's where I wouldn't have an issue.  I don't think about things, because   
   Mystic handles this flawlessly...   
      
      
   :) , thanx for your response ...
