You can look at Device Manager under serial ports and it will tell you whether 
you are using a Prolific or a FTDI Driver.  It is probably Prolific.  The Win 7 
issue didn't present until about Oct or Nov of 2009.

Is there a way to tell which chipset is used in the KUSB I purchased in June 
2009??
