Rather than attempting to sell new implementations of TCP/IP for your favourite BBC micro, the adverts were for a topological disinfectant of some sort. I wonder if the active ingredient was that same TCP petrol additive... Actually, I think that's TSP (tri-sodium phosphate)... it's used to clean floors and walls and such. -Nancy Connor FTP Software nancy@ftp.com
