Re: quake2 patch

Actually, there are two patches.  The patch_07.zip was intended to fix the
crash exploit (it was released on Saturday) and some other bugs while the
patch_08.zip was released this morning to fix the things that the
patch_07.zip broke.  You can skip from one 3.0.06 to 3.0.08 with no
problems since it completely replaces the quake2.exe and 3 dll files.
However, there are still conectivity issues after the patches are applied,
but they don't merit being discussed on this mailing list.
