Lucky you. You also get a build-up of fungus/mold on the gold contacts on your RJ11 telephone patch-cords, introducing line noise and eventually making the line unuseable. I don't know why, but I've never seen this on RJ45's. But I still check the condition of the gold "fingers" if ever a cable fault is suspected. --- þ Synchronet þ Linus is a regular at The ANJO BBS.
