[LOGic] LOGic locking up

Hi Everyone:

I've had about a half-dozen calls about LOGic locking up. Someone 
tracked the problem down to LOGIc's feature where the clock may be set 
to NIST.

Funny thing is, it still works here (Win 7 64-bit).  One time I got a 
FAILED TO SET CLOCK message, but it never locks up.  CPU usage is near 
50% while it is waiting (dual-core CPU, so this is consistent), but when 
it succeeds or times out, it drops back to 1 or 2%.

You can get back into the program by deleting \LOGIC8\PDA.INI, or better 
yet by modifying PDA.INI and deleting this line

SetClockToNISTOnStartup=Yes

If you want to try to mess with it, try turning off any firewall.  I am 
running the Win 7 firewall, though -- as long as traffic is initiated by 
your computer, it should open the port.

Tnx & 73,

Dennis WN4AZY
