It's a bit of a worry - I never think twice about turning one piece of
equipment off that's rs232 connected to something else...  In fact, I
do it quite a lot.  Unless the switchoff of the PC caused some kind of
interference/spike back on the mains which affected the modem...

So what are you thinking of/have replaced it with?
