Does anyone else have the problem of MRC crashing synchronet after being
connected to MRC for an hour or less? I have 3 different windows 10 machines I
have tested this on and it happens on each of them. I am running synchronet
3.19b. It will crash after a couple of weeks anyway but it will definitely
crash after mrc has been open and running for about an hour. I have been using
a-nets MRC chatroom to chat with friends instead. I use restartoncrash.exe to
auto restart my sbbs when it hangs up. The restartoncrash program monitors
sbbsctrl.exe and when it does not report back it clears the error pop up box
and restarts sbbs for me if it hangs for 2 minutes. In all, it is a 3 minute or
less down time. Is there a fix for this MRC problem? 
I hope you can provide some insight. Thank you and have a great day!
