   Dear CCL'ers

 Several of my internal reaction coordinate -following optimum searches
run into the same problem: from a TS which has a negative frequency 
apparently corresponding to a dissociation, the resulting minima in both
direction are the same. Has anyone experienced similar problems? Could it
be a problem of the IRC method implemented in gaussian? I'd be grateful for
any kind of help.
