   Certainly shouldn't. It's a known bug in an early FFS version. I seem
to remember the 1.3.2 update containing a fixed FFS.

   It's a fault on *BOTH* programs - you may call it a binary bug, it takes
another bug to expose the first one. VirusX, JRComm e.a. have this 'using
$0 as pointer' bug that shows when something weird is in $0.

   So true. VirusX and JRComm where fixed. So is FFS - get it, and you're
all set.
