At this point, I don't know why it isn't, however I remember when first
looking at it and trying to
port it myself that it was using vulnerable software in its' code base and
I haven't looked at it
in awhile.

Do you have a link to the client so I can just look into that? Perhaps I
was going in too deep.

Thanks!
