Try this yourself...
Open a convo window with someone and then type "/strek \V/" without the quotes.This will bring the trekie easter egg up.
Now look at the quote sender (Plus!->Send a Quote...)
In the "Contact Name" combo box, select your name.
It would look as:

[Time]      \V/
[Time]      Live long and prosper

Shouldnt it only say "\V/" ? :^)
Im attaching an example:

And while we are in quote sender bugs...Here are some more:
1)Shouldnt the quote sender also quote the colours of the letters?
I mean that if you used Ctrl + K to colour some letters, shouldnt it include them?
2)While you have quote sender open, and you receive a message from the contact you are viewing the quotes, the message isnt added to the listbox... :undecided:

0) Errmm... shouldn't it only show "Live long and prosper" instead of "\V/" in the chatwindow and in the quotes? Because "\V/" a parameter you use for the soundcommand, it isn't the actual text associated with the sound...
So I think this might be a bug...

1) Limitation... quotes are stripped from formating codes...

2) It is added when you close and reopen the quote sender. The list isn't real-time updated... It's normal
