I was testing with NetSerial yesterday and apparently need to change my
modem init string if I want it to work properly since it won't "hang
up" the virtual modem.  I didn't see any crashing yet and it seems to
work ok other than it not hanging up.

I might just stick with OS/2 and the Raymond Gwinn SIO/Vmodem drivers since
they are rock solid and I aleady have that registered. 

I also tested Virtual Modem Pro, but can't seem to figure out how that
would work with my setup.  

Net2BBS won't work with my BBS since WWIV's comm ports are not fossil style.
