no, vmodem is a virtual modem, a piece of software that provides the interface 
of a virtual comport, any application that communicates via a modem thinks
it's a real modem and because vmodem is also a telnet client this makes it
possible to use any telecommunication program to connect to a bbs on the
internet that runs a telnet server (vmodem has also a telnet server).
