-------------------------
I run Win98, and am not about to change. But as for a "fix", it's not
exactly rocket science to do a search for the call in the field. I can
do this with 4
lines of code on a file infinitely large. The FCC database currently
has 717,940 calls in it, including canceled and terminated calls. It
took those 4 lines of code exactly 2 seconds to find the last call.
Considering the friend.ini file has about 12,000 calls,
a proper search engine will find the last call in .03 seconds.
 

The problem is not with Win98, it's with WriteLog, and needs to be
fixed.
