By default a Win95 connectoid sets "Show Modem Status."  A modem icon 
should appear in the Notification Area of the Desktop (lower right hand 
corner to the left of the time).  Move the mouse pointer over the icon 
to view xmt/rcv information.  Double-click for more information.  If you 
don't see the modem, enable this option under connectoid Properties.
