I am pretty sure that this newsgroup has dealt this matter already
before but I think this needs repetition. At least I didn't know
this before yesterday.

I made a PIF file for Telix and got it to work alrigth in a resizable
window. However I tried then Zmodem file transfer and it hung pretty
heavily. I just had to take a reset and hope that I can get a connection
back before someone else doing something nasty with my files and rights.

Yesterday I noticed that clvax1.cl.msu.edu (35.8.2.1) had a replacement
file for this buggy comm driver and I installed my Windows again with
this new driver and now my Telix can do the Zmodem transfers under
Windows.

So anyone using Windows (and Telix) should take this corrective action
at once.
