I have been using version 4.15 for about a week, now (and I used an earlier
version of QVT before that).  I have had no trouble whatsoever in connecting.
I have had some minor troubles with it locking up after a failed transfer
(only when using Xmodem, I think; not usually a problem when using Zmodem).
I haven't seen anything I like better for comm under WINDOWS, but then, I
haven't looked too hard, 'cause qvt works great for me.
