Resetting packet driver in WinQVT/Net
=====================================

Does anyone know how to reset the packet driver and PKTINT program
when WinQVT/Net dies (terminates with "Unrecoverable Application Error")?

I know WinQVT is not supposed to die with a UAE, but whenever it does, it's
not possible to simply restart it.  In those situations, it always gives
a message something like "the packet driver is already in use", and it
refuses to reset it.  I end up having to reboot the PC.

I'm using WinQVT version 1.63, with the 3C501 driver from the Clarkson
collection.
