There is a reported bug in the Menu.exe file that ships with V3.1 of NW.
Copy the MENU.ZIP file from library 6 of the Netwire forums on Compuserve.
Replace the MENUPARZ file and the problem should go away.

You will be running a version of menu.exe that is version 1.23 and a version
of menuparz.exe that is version 1.22.  This will NOT solve another problem
with use of the logout command from a batch file called from the menu.
