[Dx4win] DX Cluster connection

I am brand new to DX4WIN (and spotting nets for that matter: haven't been on
in 12 years, HI HI). Things are going fine except I can't connect to a DX
spotting cluster via the Internet. I have

1. Entered Type: Regular and COM Port:TCP/IP into the Setup Parameters for
the Cluster interface in the Packet1 tab
2. Examined but not changed anything in the Packet2 and 3 tabs

According to the DX4WIN Help file, "After you have configured the TNC, the
DX Spots Window is available." Available where? I can't find a menu item in
DX4WIN that would open a spotting Window.

After 30 minutes of trying different things over and over, at one point I
saw a list of WWW addresses in a new Window. I selected one but nothing
seemed to happen afterwards.  Now I can't seem to get the Window with
addresses back.

I must be missing some simple point or my system is blocking something.

Thanks in advance.
