That sounds like something I had with pre-2.1.90-2 +IM's delayed IO-bitmap
clearing patch.
I was trying to connect to a https: site with Netscape Communicator and it
looked like my modem SD light just locked on. It stayed like that for
about a minute until I pressed Stop on the browser, then the light went
out. I pressed Refresh and it did it again. So I gave up. :-)
I didn't do any investigation as to what packet it was sending etc. as I
don't know how to. :)
Cheers,
Jon.
