Sorry, I realise this was discussed a while ago, but I never paid
much attention, until now, when I have this problem myself.

I was going through my discs one day, and came across a copy of
EZVision, which uses the modem port for MIDI. "I'll never use
EZVision since I don't have any MIDI equipment" said I to myself,
and erased the disc.

Next day, I opened MicroPhone II, intending to log on to a BBS. It
politely informed me that the modem port was in use by some other
application, so basically I couldn't have it. Nor have I been able
to get it back. Help! What can I do to release/reset the port?

I think there may be a program to reset the modem port, but since I
don't have FTP access, could someone out there please mail it to me?

Thanks,
