It seems like echicken has lost interest in bulletin boards. I would
just remove it from the config. 
You need to comment out everything from [electronic chicken bbs] and
below upto the next entry or the end of the file.
You don't need to restart any services. ansiview isn't a service, it's
a door/external program.
