Newest winrash problems?

There was a bug introduced in 0010 where I was fgets()'ing and checking for feof() on file opened with "wb".  Thus the debug file was growing out of control.  I released 0011 to fix this issue and I'm hoping that people get the upgrade when their PC's restart.

What I *should* do is somehow get the nsis installer script to check for the winsock2 dlls and actually run the installer, but thats a bit more difficult than just displaying a dialog with text and a web link.
