Testing this time was better. After a little chatting, I found my Point-of-View floating near the ceiling. I hadn't moved or done any other action - I just snapped up there and couldn't move or mouselook. I could chat, though. After a few seconds, I popped outside of the sub.
After you suggested it, I pressed "F" and that popped me back inside the sub. We chatted a bit, then suddenly I got a Windows-level disconnect pop-up. I'll try logging back on now...
Update: I logged back in, but I was the only one there. However, this time, I got a "DirectX Helper" notice from ZoneAlarm that I'd never seen before. I went ahead and permitted it to access the net and act as a server. But, I was the only player (display near chat read "1").

Well, after getting back in again, I guess the test did provide conclusive results, even if not what was hoped for. As they say, "The operation was a success but the patient died..."
