I have a host of problems with WinQVT. First, the system normally locks
up when I'm running full-screen mode. Ctrl-alt-del sometimes, but not
always, works in getting out of it. When the window is 24x80 things work
fine except that the file transfer protocols terminate with too many
transmission errors. This is quite annoying and I usually end up using
Unicom for downloading (which has an even more annoying 'register me'
message.)

Same here. My 2 cents: people should boycott Shareware that pops up a
registration screen every ten keystrokes. In addition to making it 
frustrating on a trial basis, any *good* software shouldn't need this
tactic.
