The Prolific problem is well known with Visual Basic 6, which is the 
language MM is written in.  We have had some recent reports that the 
most recent Prolific drivers (downloadable from their web site) have 
cured this problem, but I have not verified it personally.  I *do* know 
that FTDI and some other chipsets work fine.
