I have a related problem.  If I move the adapter
to another USB port, it creates a new serial port #.
I do not always remember to use the same USB port
each time I restart the PC and plug the adapter in.
But I can move the adapter back to the original USB
port to get the original serial port number.

I am using a 4 com port USB adapter, so it creates
5,6,7,8 on the first USB port I use, and then
9,10,11,12 on the next, etc

Another problem I came across was finding drivers for
Vista 64.  But I think that
http://www.cablestogo.com has a complete set
of drivers for all windows varients.
