   I appears to me when I connected, that the 'garbage' seen is actually data   
   sent in the wrong or incompatible character set.  I'm using UTF8 by default   
   (as most Linux/Unixes would;  however, when I switched to Latin-1 (MSDOS   
   8bit), it correctly displays your opening ANSI graphic page.   
      
   I would look to set about the character set settings with the connection and   
   BBS to resolve.   
      
   Good Luck,
