I agree with you (from my Perl/C experience) and will switch to using ByteArray: _socket.readBytes(myByteArray, offset, _socket.bytesAvailable); Or maybe I'll start using XMLSocket (is that one safe?) The only thing I don't understand is why does ActionScript API offer a function like readUTF() if it can't be used at all?
