    Upon recycling back to the BBS, Wildcat! detected I was out of time
    and promptly kicked me off stating I had exceeded my time limit.
    Obviously that wasn't the case (I had only been on a few minutes) so the ->whole thing sounded way too familiar.

    So I ran up my PATCHWC v3.00 program and checked the Epoch date on the ->WILDCAT.EXE and sure enough, it was set for 1919. Since today is the
    first day of 2019, this was the exact reason PATCHWC.EXE was created
    for.

    So I ran up PATCHWC.EXE and changed the Epoch date to 1930 and ran it ->against Wildcat!'s executables. Subsequent attempts at replying to ->netmails in Wildcat! were now successful and life is good.

    Long story short, if you run DOORs (of any kind) and have not patched
    your Wildcat! EXEs, or if your Epoch date was set to 1919 (as was mine), ->then you'll need to run PATCHWC against it and use at least 1920 as the

    Epoch date. If you need a copy of the program (it's free), let me know
    and I'll make it available for you.

    I requested a copy but never received it???
    Can you send it to sysop@techware2k.com

    Thanks

    That's sad. :( Would love to recover my key for more than 2 nodes.
