I've seen the same thing, Charles. Different characters, same problem. The _only_ time I have had it happen is when using Whap. I've spent thousands of hours capturing messages from CIS with Online and it never happened once. It's happened half a dozen times while beta-testing Whap, I've reported it, and now that it's in general distribution I've seen several reports. Not too serious a problem, but it would be nice to know the reason.

Jon, Then please explain to me why it happens 100% of the time when I use my CTS modem with Access, Aterm, Comm, Online or any other terminal program I've tried. Best, -jcs-

The spurious characters never appear on the display. But when I View the file there they are. Is that the behavior of the CTS modem?
