[WriteLog] LPT port access

[Jerry Pixton]

Clive,

If you are following the Direct I/O instructions in their Q600003 article, 
there is a vital step missing. After setting the Parallel Port addresses in 
step 2, you must click on the ADD button and then you can go on to step 3 
on the Security tab. See the Writelog archieves for all the times we have 
omitted this step!

Once you get it set up it works like a charm.

73,

Jerry, W6IHG
