If you happen to experience the bug where your BBS statistics suddenly reset to
zero, I am aware of it. I've been trying to figure out what has caused this for
some time without much luck. Steven has tested and shown that it is not caused
by VADV-PHP.

I feel that it is caused by a combination of VADV32 and one of the network
packet processing utilities (such as vfido). Maybe one of the utilities is
locking the statvbbs.dat file at the same time VADV32 is trying to update idle
minutes. I'm now testing a build of VADV32 that locks the file before accessing
it to see if it causes problems. I may issue a build that has idle minutes
disabled to see if it still occurs.

Anyway I wanted to let you know that I am aware of this and I'm trying to find
some solution.

It is recommended that you have some sort of nightly backup in case this ever
happens.

Steve
