[comp.windows.ms] QUERY: Why would Windows be claiming that serial port is open?

A problem has been developing on my system lately.  It seems that whenever
I try to use a comm program, it claims that the port that I have my modem
on is busy.  This is now happening two out of three times...

Any suggestions?
