It could be that U2 Device licensing turned on and are not using an Enterprise version of U2. Accuterm will send a "handshake" to negotiate the device licensing issues that will appear as several characters on your screen if you are not using a device licensed equipped version of U2. This also happens if you have disconnected an reconnected because U2 only recognizes the handshake when you first connect.
To check for the device licensing option click on the Accuterm menu bar, "Tools", Select "settings from the drop down menu, then the "Connection" tab of the multi-tabbed screen. Click on the "Advanced" button and see if "U2 Device Licensing" is checked. Note: You must have a session open to get to this option screen.
