George The point is not that it "disconnects immediately and completely", but that the Windows Task Manager shows that the CPU usage jumps up to 98% usage and stays there after you disconnect by typing 'bye' from a packet cluster session. If you then close the telnet windows the usage drops down to a few percent.
As long as the CPU usage is stuck at such a high usage the performance of other tasks is greatly hampered. In case you don't know how to test this, do as follows: In WinXP open the task manager (alt-ctrl-del) and the window for cpu usage. Observe that it is just a few percent busy. Start DXB2003, connect using it to a cluster. Observe the cpu usage. Now type 'bye' but leave the cluster window open. Observe the cpu usage..it should have popped up to nearly 100% and stays there. Close the cluster window and observe that the usage drops down to a low value. If you have done this test and do not observe the near 100% usage (which essentially means the application is in a loop) I will be surprised.
