Ihave been unable to get the Dial Other ISP dialer to work.
In verbose mode it seems that the only NAK I get back is the MagicNumber
request.
So I installed In-Joy from the Nov96 Hobbes Archived CD and still
couldn't get in. InJoy gives me an Invalid Protocol line repeatedlyThe
following lines are from the InJoy trace log.

Don't know if this means anything.It doesn't say MagicNumber like the
Dialer.
Anyway I know that I used to be able to use the dialer and now I can't.
I had previously installed Warp V4 over my Red Box V3 and I was able to
use the dialer. Now with V4 installed on a clean c: drive with all
DOS/Win on a separate C: and boot manager I can't connect.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
