Default Drywall cracks

I remember reading on this group a taping product that is good for fixing
persistant drywall cracks over doors, etc. It's more flexible than regular
tape/mud. Maybe its some sort of rubberized tape ??? I remember seeing it
on the group, but I can't seem to find the thread. Any recollections?

Before the wiseguys can say it...no, I am not talking about caulk. Thanks.

It's a mesh tape that's treated with something to make it slightly sticky so
it'll adhere to the wall. It's a breeze to work with, and it's not some
exotic thing that's hard to find. Any reputable hardware store will have it,
and probably Home Depot, too, although they'll probably tell you it's over
by the house plants. :-)
