[fbb] winfbb versions

[Paul Brown]

Logan, Mike and all,

There's one executable included in all FBB versions (DOS and 
Windows) that is not Year 2000 compatible. You'll find there's a new 
version of EPURWP.EXE on the FTP sites. BBS sysops should replace 
the old file EPURWP.COM that came with the package with this new 
one. If you run the old version, your White Pages database updates 
will be corrupted.

Here's a link to the new file:
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/ham/packet/bbs/f6fbb/distrib/win/epurwp.zip
