Just want to publicly thank Ken for the hard work and time he has put into
creating this little gem. NetAgent is FANTASTIC. I've got a list of people
in my address.ini file, and when I want to see if anyone is racing (or if I
have found an IP# of someone that is hosting), I just enter it, and away I
go!

Thanks again, Ken

Is it just me or does VROC overwrite my address.ini each time?

Yep, I believe it does. I think what it does is renames your current
address.ini file to something else, and puts the VROC host IP# into a NEW
address.ini file.

When you exit GPL, it reverts the files back to the original status.

Not on my machine.. The address file is overwritten for good :(
(or it isn't being put back)

VROC did that to me once, too!
I had probably 12 good names in my address.ini file that were "static" IP#'s
and could usually find 4 or 5 that would be online every night, but then
VROC wiped it!

Lesson learnt. BACK UP YOUR ADDRESS.INI FILE if you have stuff in there you
don't want to lose!
