    SpyBot Beta Updates

    Just an FYI - the Beta updates can and will show false-positives!
    If you don't want to be hassled with this annoyance - set SpyBot not
    to check for Beta includes updates.

    Would you kindly turn Quoted Printable OFF? Your posts are something of a
    mess (see above for one of the lesser examples).

    Thank you.

    That's just a function of the inadequate newsreader that you are using.

    Jay,

    I've been using Outlook Express since news off Forte Agent have not been
    reliable of late, I apologize for the messy [ = 20 ] posts.

    Was a good idea at the time, Jeff The false-positives issues seem to have
    been cleared up, I hope. I'm still using them - FWIW...

    I'm using the same newsreader as Blocksom (Forte Agent 1.93/32.576), and
    it's handling Quoted Printable just fine. I think he has mangled his
    options.

    Bummer. I left OE for Agent three years ago and probably would
    make a mess of things myself, were I forced to go back.

    Are you saying OE will pull in more msgs from the same server
    than Agent? Weird!

    When I realize something is wrong with my msg count, I switch
    from my ISP news server to cis.dfn.de to fix the problem.

    2.0 will be out any day now. :-)
