Well, as I remember my ASCII, that would be a lot more correct with
0d, 0a (not d0, a0).

Well, just in case this still is unanswered....
Hex 0xA0 = Dec 160
That's to you HTML-Heads out there, or 'Non-breaking space' to the rest
of us.
For the average non-programmer, it's a character that looks like a space, but
it's really not.
Off-hand, I'd wager to guess that you are using Microsoft programs to read the
newsgroups, and these are likely sneaking that in, thinking it's helping you
out. That, or the senders of those are having the problems.
Either way, the way to locate them is to use the 'Character Map' accessory to
select and copy char 160. Then paste that in your 'Find' dialog, and you can
track those down.
