Trailing Square Symbols Behind Message

Hi all :D,
I have run the following program (es explained at the link):

Now I get the message text in the chat window but with trailing square characters after it.

Can someone help me remove these please?

Thanks

Q

Code:

---

Private Sub getMessage()
    For infiniteCounter = 1 To 2
        infiniteCounter = 1
        serverStream = clientSocket.GetStream()
        Dim buffSize As Integer
        Dim inStream(10024) As Byte
        buffSize = clientSocket.ReceiveBufferSize
        Dim dataLength As Integer = serverStream.Read(inStream, 0, buffSize)
        Dim returndata As String = _
        System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(inStream, 0, dataLength)
        readData = "" + returndata
        msg()
    Next
End Sub

"weird" isn't the half of it. I just want to point out that that code wasn't mine. I was just modifying the code that the OP got from another source. That loop is downright shameful.

lol.
