Hi Nigel,

If I remember this string is used to start the automatic download within
Procomm.  This can be disabled so that when you get the string you start it
yourself (I think you do this with one of the icons along the top which has
an arrow pointing downward?)  There is an option which you can set that will
automatically do this - I will check where it is and follow this up later
in the week when I can get to a machine with Procomm on it.

Regards

Paul
