Telix 3.20 totally locks up my PC

I've just got a modem, and as the 3.20 version of Telix was released at
about the same time, I thought I'd give it a try.

However, it seems like some commands, ie. Alt-U, totally hangs the PC.
It will not even catch the 'three-finger salute', the only way to get out
of it is the reset button. This also happens when exiting Telix with the
Alt-X command. If this is a way to get people to register their copy,
I doubt many will do that...

Configuration:

386/25 SX, 8Mb, with DOS 5.0, Himem, Emm386 and Stacker 2.0

Supra FaxModem v32 connected to COM2, configured with 'modemcfg.exe', environment
variable set with 'SET TELIX=C:\UTILITY\TELIX'

Any clues?
