Ummm, this doesn't count. I'm running an old version here now because I =
could modify the 
binary to get rid of the HELO name altogether. This is the last version =
I could do that with since 
they changed compilers and now compress the binary. That's whay I have b=

can no longer get rid of HELO as I do with this old version... And why I=
 have yet to run any 
newer versions...
