Oddest thing...bid price increased by $100!!

Okay, so I was toying around with a live auction I was running and submitted my bid until I was the highest bidder (probably around $10). I decided to increase my bid to $13. I did this, received a confirmation that my bid had indeed been increased to $13, but when I went back to the item, it said that I could not bid less than $110.00!! I checked to .dat file and the area where it tells you what increments to go up by had changed from 1.00 to 100.00. Luckily I had just backed up all of the .dat's. I reloaded the backup and all was fine. But when I tried to increase my bid on ANOTHER item....the SAME THING happened.

Any ideas? I'm stumped.  Shocked

I tested it (again) but I can't reproduce the described behavior.
Please check the settings you did (eConfig161.pl).

Code:
#-#############################################
# Config-Section-03
# The Config-Variables of: form_date
#-#############################################
  $config{'continent'}	        = 0;	# 0 = USA  1 = Others
  $config{'time_delay'}	        = 0;	# time delay  (Server/Client)
 
#-#############################################
# Config-Section-04
# The Config-Variables of: form_currency
#-#############################################
  $config{'currency'}	        = 0;	# 0 = USA  1 = Others
  $config{'cur_symbol'}	        = '$';	# Your Currency-Symbol
  $config{'allow_cent'}	        = 1;	# 0 = No |  1 = Yes

Maybe that's it?!?! I'll find out. Here's what I had. If I remember correctly I changed the time delay because there was a 3 hour delay. it was on east coast time and I'm on the west coast.

Could that make the phenomena that I'm talking about?

Thank you so much!!!  Smiley

  $config{'continent'}			    = 0;	# 0 = USA  1 = Others
  $config{'time_delay'}		  = -3;	# time delay  (Server/Client)
 
#-#############################################
# Config-Section-04
# The Config-Variables of: form_currency

  $config{'currency'}			  = 0;	# 0 = USA  1 = Others
