SYSTEMS AFFECTED

    Win95

PROBLEM

    Ryan Nichols  found following.   Those affected  are "WinGate  and
    StarTech".   The bug  is pretty  straight forward,  telnet to  the
    proxy server at its pop3 port and type for WinGate:

        USER x#99999.....

    With lots of nine's, the proxy server stops responding and needs
    to be restarted.

    For Startech:

        USER x<9999999.....>

    Once again, as many nines as possible, startech quits  responding.
    In Startech's  case, this  can also  be done  in the telnet daemon
    part of it also...

SOLUTION

    Nothing yet.
