  While we're on the subject of UUPC...
  One of the difficulties with 1.06 apparently lay in its tendency to 
hang at odd moments during transfer. Something about a 0 length packet etc.
We have a number of our sites who have upgraded to 1.07j and are
proceeding swimmingly. Others have had to reinstall 1.06 since the program
balks even during the dial-up....or during the original synchronization
sequences immediately after logging on...or somewhere else entirely.
  Is there a way to patch 1.06 with the "fix" for the 0 length packet.
Or am I really just confusing issues here? As a virtual layman regarding
these things, I feel like I'm pointing to an alternator and calling it
the vermifuge.
  Many thanks for your patience and comments.
