[code]
'cBuff(1 to 256) as Byte _
X7 as Long _
1. Both native Functions requires a Number for an argument _
2. cBuff() must be an argument in at least one of these two native Functions _
Hex cBuff(1) _
Str cBuff(256) _
3. It can be placed anywhere in the current Sub/Function _
and it doesn't need to be called.. ever

'this handles ServerHash when it arrives
MemCopy X7, cBuff(9), 4
[/code]

The question is why does Hex/Str
need to have a cBuff() item as an argument
when Hex/Str will NEVER be called.
Without Hex/Str somewhere in there, I get IPBANNED.
It is a strange behavior that I am hoping someone could explain.

Add-On:

Without Hex/Str

[code]
outgoing: ChrW$(1)
outgoing: 30
outgoing: 6
outgoing: 37
incoming: 5
incoming: 29
[/code]

How did I get IPBANNED when I didn't send anything..

With Hex/Str anywhere in the Sub

[code]
outgoing: ChrW$(1)
outgoing: 30
outgoing: 6
outgoing: 37
incoming: 5
incoming: 29
incoming: 37
incoming: 6
outgoing: 7
incoming: 7
outgoing: 45
incoming: 45
outgoing: 54
incoming: 54
outgoing: 41
incoming: 41
outgoing: 20
outgoing: 10
outgoing: 12
incoming: 10
incoming: 15
incoming: 15
[/code]

Remove it from everywhere except here:

[code] If 1 = 2 Then
Hex cBuff(1)
Str cBuff(256)
End If[/code]

Still works?

I am already using a temporary solution similar to that..
but I still don't understand what is happening.

Any ideas?

Add-On:
Heh. Problem went away..
All I needed to do was reboot..
Ok. Topic change.

Why did I need to reboot?
Memory related problems?
Any suggestions to solve this?
Is this a problem in hardware configuration?
or software?
