    In my FIDOIN event I have a java script that I created that runs a
    couple of other things and tosses the mail, but when it runs it
    opens a normal sized window on the PC instead if being minimized.
    This seems to have started a few months ago and I can't figure out
    why. Anyone have a thought on this? It
    was minimized in the taskbar before.

    Do you have Options = XTRN_MINIMIZED (likely with other option
    flags) in the [bbs] section of your ctrl/sbbs.ini file? This
    correlates with
    the "Minimize externals" checkbox in the SBBSCTRL->Terminal
    Server->Config dialog.

    My cfg for FIDOIN is this

    Nobody has any idea what that custom .js script is doing. That's
    probably what's opening a window.

    And I also un-commented the XTRN_MINIMIZE in th sbbs.ini, but it
    still
    oper the window in normal mode.

    You don't "uncomment" it... you add it to the "Options = " line.

    Yeah, I saw that. It's also on the Terminal server settings. That didn't help though.
