Hi freddy77, 



Thanks for testing it.  I am running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 Update 7 -- 
uname -a output: 

   Linux devbox.localdomain 2.6.9-78 EL #1 Wed Jul 9 15:27:01 EDT 2008 i686 
athlon i386 GNU/Linux 

and top shows all of the memory slowly being used up. 



Thanks, 

mtbrown88

... code stripped down ... 

Hi, 
  I ran the program (it compile fine without problems, I just changed 
server, port and account) with Valgrind under Linux using all protocol 
(4.2, 5.0, 7.0 and 8.0) with different server but I got no leaks. 
Which platform are you using? Which configurations?
