I've been using Cirrus for DUATS over my cable modem for years. My
drive crashed recently and I reinstalled the program. Now I can't get
it to aurtomatically log in and get the weather info I ask for. It
just comes to the prompt and asks for my name. From there I have to
type everything manually, so it basically ignored all the items I
requested in the Cirrus interface. Does anyone know how to make this
thing work? I've gotten so used to just picking the stuff I want from
the menus in Cirrus and letting it navigate theDUATS menus for me.
This is very frustrating. This program is so lousy by modern
standards.

I don't use Cirrus anymore, but didn't it have a preferences slection for
connecting interactively? You might try the _free_ replacement, Golden
Eagle Flight Prep. Pretty good program. See
