I first noticed format bugs in an MSDOS BBS about 9 years ago -- but it had a lot of buggy code in it, so I never really thought of it as a pervasive problem so much as one unique to newbie coders (which I was then myself). It had stack overflows too, so I mentally lumped it all together and forgot about it until now. While I don't mess around with proprietary OSes much, I'm sure there must be format bugs all over the place. There's no reason I can think of to expect it to be in any category of software more than any other (aside *maybe* from stuff written in languages which are unlike C). -- Scott
