Jim;
Do you know why  laplink only will do "file transfer only" via network?
Was using the latest version recently and had problems with doing
anything else while in a network connection. Any other function besides
file transfer caused lockups ofthe software.

 As a matter of fact I was getting lockups with Laplink running and it was
difficult to get laplink to stop trying to transfer after it appeared to
be doing nothing.
