[RADIATOR] Acct-Gigawords Hook (from the goodies dir)

[Paul Lattimer]

That's got it.
Thanks very much Hugh.

I simply removed "Pre", as "ClientHook" is still a global option.

Working like a charm.

Hello Paul -

This problem has been discussed earlier this year.

The solution is to use a "ClientHook" rather than a "PreClientHook".

Assuming of course you are running Radiator 4.4.

This is because of some changes to the packet decoding routines.

Otherwise I will need to see a copy of your configuration file and a  
trace 5 debug showing what is happening.

regards

Hugh
