I've experienced this problem both using nqc and the java serial comm classes.
Both are using the microsoft serial port driver, I assume.  FWIW, the machine is
a Dell Dimension Laptop running Win2k.  I am not certain under what circumstances
the LED comes on or remains on - I only noticed the LED staying on after I'd
determined that I was having serious comm problems.

My understanding of the IR tower issue that is being discussed here is that
simply plugging the IR tower into a serial port on a machine running W2K is
causing the LED to turn on and stay on continuously so long as the PC is
operating.  I may have misunderstood the previous messages.  Is it Spirit
that seems to be continually driving the LED when used on a PC running W2K?
