      If it were me, the first thing I'd do, and you (and others) won't like
it, would be to dump windows completely.  Personally, I'd use OS/2, but
Linux should be equally viable.

      Beyond that, sorry.  I'd need to know more about your setup.  Of
course, you're most welcome to bring the box/modem over here and I'm sure
we'd solve the problem lickety-split.  :)
