subject: Question for DOS Doors

I seem to be having some kind of COM BLEED when using SIO and doing anything
while the modem is in use, but it only happens when accessing a DOS door.

Here's an exampe, given the following nodes (This is EleBBS, FWIW):
Line 0:	Local Node - No non-local access.
Line 1:	Modem Line - Used for Incoming users and mail transfers (FTSC 
or INET)


Line Status: 

Line 0: Me logged in locally
Line 1: TransX/DOS sending/recieving mail/files.

If I try to access, say, OLMS, the Comm input is redirected from the
TransX Session to the OLMS window. Thus I get garbage in there and it
seeming operates by itiself. Now I can access the BBS just fine always, and I
can access OLMS Just fine, IF There is no other DOS program doing any COMM
access.

Does anyone know of any ideas to stop this? I'm thinking of going multi-node
soon, but if everything the person in the door on line 1 is sent to the person 
on the door in line 0, that just won't work.

Thanks!
