Ken,

Most of us have seen this problem in the past, unfortunately.  I had posted a 
possible fix in March 2003, and brought it up again in early June, but not 
much interest was shown in it so I never brought it up again.  I will say 
that I've applied the patch to all RaQ4's I have control of and have not seen 
this problem since (and we have removed several regular sites and test sites 
since).

I can't find my original message in the archives, but I did find the June 
message here:
