Hi,

I just finished benchmarks on an Intel P4 2.4GHz (run from a DOS-window
inside Windows 2000 SP4).
Version 1.22 doesn't seem to work very well in my computer. I downloaded
both http://www.hashcash.org/binaries/win32/hashcash-1.22-win32-exe.zip
and hashcash.exe frmo same folder.

My old copy of version 1.18 works, so at the end is my addition to the
list of benchmarks.

New try gave same situation. Is 1.22 broken?
