This is a great clue! Thanks for finding this. Does anyone out
there who had the problem still have a RESTART.BIN file I can
look at?
It seems some people really had this problem in spades, and others
(including myself) didn't. I sure would like to know what the differnce
is!

Well, maybe it isn't clear... How does the program know you are done
with the call then (unless it is using the AUTO CALL TERMINATE feature).
I think using the AUTO START SENDING feature is the best thing since
sex, and is worth the learning curve.
