Hey Woody,

I was just poking around, and just for fun, I clicked on the "View Your Posts" option in the board. All I got was a screen full of a few dozen errors, all more or less like the one below:

---------------------------
Warning: Unexpected character in input: '' (ASCII=18) state=2 in /home/mailarti/www/board/search.php on line 8

ascii code 18 is the character "^R" (Ctrl+R) -- these can be spotted and removed easily with a binary-capable text editor such as EMACS or JED..

Sounds like a corrupted file tho..
