Well, the problem here sounds like a problem NOT with getting stuff from
CICA but from your local network connected machine to your PC. 

The mention of PROCOMM and KERMIT brings to mind a problem with parity
none connections/transfers with PROCOMM. I have had problems with
old versions of PROCOMM when using 8 bit no parity connections. Works
fint with parity even.
