Yeah, I used to as well, and had no issues.

Where I think the issue stems from (which I'm guessing based on these packets) - is that the areas are PASSTHRU.

I've seent hpt happily pass through bad mystic packets, and this might be another example of that. I havent looked deep enough to work it out.

I dont think so, they switched to hpt in the last couple of years, but who knows <shrug>
