Please stand by, this is my first use of the net as anything other
than a passive reader.

I once had a similar problem with my Concorde modem and the XMODEM
terminal emulator that was posted to the net as source a while back.
Whenever I went into file capture mode before I was connected to
some other machine, the <ctrl>S that was sent out would be echoed
back to my ST by the modem!  Voila, nobody talks to anybody anymore!

I don't know if this is the problem of the first poster, since it is
fairly unlikely that spurious line noise would become ^S, but it sounds
possible for the second poster.
