Yeah, it does that. Didn't it ask you for your name when you installed
it? The install program is supposed to create a log file for you? Not to
worry, add this to your startup file:

BX login Mimi Q2 ;*; (copy the BX and the Q2 from another line--they're
function calls actually).

Now create a file called log.log in your XyWin directory. Go to the
command line, type PFUNC bc and press enter. Store the file. (At least
that's what's in mine.)

It's ridiculous, I know. After I wring the neck of the person who
created the Toyota campaign featuring that geek inside the television
set I am going after the nitwit who thought this was a cool thing to
inflict on XyWrite.
