  16. ----------------------------Original message----------------------------
  17. Has anyone had any success using WinQVT/Net to access FirstSearch via the
  18. Internet?
  19.  
  20. With version 1.31 I can connect OK, but the the host will not respond to
  21. RETURN unless another character is entered first.  This means I have to
  22. reenter searches with a resulting increase in charges.
  23.  
  24. We recently upgraded to version 3.0, and now I have to press CTRL-BREAK and
  25. hit RETURN several times to get FirstSearch to respond with the
  26. authorization prompt. At that point the host stops responding altogether.
