When I use WinQVT or use Procomm (running as non-Window application) or even Terminal, any communication program inside Windows, the machine will sooner or later reboot itself. It didn't happen to me before, now it happened. I heard someone mention about a virus which reboots the PC at arbitrary time before. I wonder if this has happened to anyone in the netland, if so, what is the reason behind this problem. Thanks in advance. My machine is Zenith 248-12, with Zoom 2400baud modem using COM3, I used scanv67 and failed to find any virus. --Eric (fong@ksuvax1.cis.ksu.edu)
