On Windows NT, 2000 or XP, TinyTERM 4.x will sometimes hang after a modem connection disconnects normally. There are two possible solutions:
- Open TinyTERM’s Session Properties and go to the Login tab. Click the Logout radio button. Delete any text in the 1st Send, Wait for, Then Send and Retry fields on that same tab. Save the changes.
- If that does not work, update the modem drivers on the PC.
There are circumstances where neither of these solutions works. In that case, the only fix is to kill TinyTERM from the Task Manager. To get to that, right-click on a blank area of your taskbar. Select Task Manager from the popup menu. Click on TinyTERM in the list of applications, then click the End Task button. That will close TinyTERM.
Please note that there is no way to get rid of the “Remote party disconnected” message. It will come up any time the remote system closes the telephone connection. This also alerts you to premature connection losses.
