It cooled down quite a bit, so: Did you saw the triple smiley ? Isdnd's fail-safeness has/was not changed although its got quite more robust over the time.

Remember, i4b is still beta and we are still removing that kind of bugs here and there, where one thinks "how could this stuff even run before ... ?". > >Never trust a man without a working modem connection. > =8) > > That's definitely a thing to consider.
