Errrkk - you're using the -w option on the packet driver?? My understanding
of that option was it made the driver drop ALL packets when you went into
windows - not just when an app under windows swaps out. I'm sucessfully
using WinQVT/net 1.5 here without problems , and _without_ the -w on the
packet driver (pktint does all the dirty work). I'd seriously recommend
you try removing the '-w' as well and see what happens...
