   I appears to me when I connected, that the 'garbage' seen is actually data sent   
   in the wrong or incompatible character set.  I'm using UTF8 by default (as most   
   Linux/Unixes would;  however, when I switched to Latin-1 (MSDOS 8bit), it   
   correctly displays your opening ANSI graphic page.   
      
   I would look to set about the character set settings with the connection and   
   BBS to resolve.   
      
   Good Luck,
