There may be an FAQ for this, but I've not seen it posted. 

I've just installed Win 3.1, and I created a pif for telnet. 
(3c503 card, Clarkson packet driver).  What seems to happen is that
once the icon for telnet is activated, it overwrites the driver. 
Sometimes I get the login prompt, type a few letters and get kicked 
back to the c: prompt. If I re-enter windows and try again, I get all
kinds of messages about the driver not there, can't access, etc. 

It does work fine as long as I don't try the icon I've created in Windows. 

Any suggestions? 

Thanks,
Jenny
