Eli, have you done any additional configuration to your shell modes? 
I am now using 
GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2007-06-02 on RELEASE
 and the problem persists, with shell not working at all and eshell 
 requiring C-q <return> . 
 
 Following up a comment in this thread regarding
 comint-watch-for-password-prompt I tried adding this to 
 Aplication Data/_emacs, but the problem was not affected.
 (defun shell-mode-settings ()
   (add-hook 'comint-output-filter-functions 
             'comint-watch-for-password-prompt nil t)
   (add-hook 'comint-output-filter-functions 
   'comint-strip-ctrl-m nil t)
   (setq tab-width 8))

(add-hook 'shell-mode-hook
'shell-mode-settings)
 
 As a side note, when I do get through with
 eshell, all lines are encased in ^[[00m and similar characters. TERM is
 xterm. Is there a better setting for emacs?
