Recently I have posted on the net about a problem with Delrina Winfax Pro,
that I believed were related to the CL drivers (I had 1.41). Some responses
that I received urged me to search the net for the older drivers (wasn't wasy)
and try them out. I installed V1.32B and voila! Problem gone.

On top of that, I received a response that described a similar problem
(Windows hang, Ctrl/Alt/Del clears but Windoze gets unstable) with
a different program (WinTach) - and all he wanted to do is print the
test results...

Seems like what both programs were doing when they hung, has to do
with rasterizing fonts (or something like that). But that's a guess.

I must conclude that the V1.41 drivers have a serious bug and hope that
Cirrus Logic fixes this bug soon.

Cheers!
