RE: Viewer port validation with ephemeral range

["Patrick Lidstone \(Personal e-mail\)" <patrick@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There was an intermediate release of the OCX which got the
ephemeral ports wrong - but only Kevin had a copy of this, perhaps
he has picked the wrong version up by mistake here? The
current version (1.7) works OK. (If you actually do string->number
conversion in xFx then it could be that you are assuming a short int?)
