I have used WSA on occasion for file transfer but I usually don't think
to start it.

I used to have the same problem until I created a BAT file that starts both the WSA and the emulator at the same time. On WinXP, my BAT file looks like this:

@ECHO OFF
REM This BAT file launches the WSA and the host emulator.
START /D"C:\Program Files\Personal Communications\WSA" WSA.EXE
START /D"C:\Dave2\Vista\Vista32" vista32.exe standard.ses


Syntax: START /D"path to program" progname parms

You can put the file in any directory you want, just make sure it has a BAT extension; e.g. "Host + WSA.BAT". Then create a shortcut for it on your desktop. From then on, instead of clicking the icon that launches your emulator just click the icon that launches the BAT file. That way, you can never forget to launch the WSA.
