Laptop computers seem to default with the DTR pin asserted high, while desk tops are asserted low until the port is opened. Is there a way to change this setting on a lap top so that the DTR pin stays low until the port is opened by an application?

Get out your docs and look through the dip-switch settings. I've never messed with laptop dip-switches, but on my home PC, you can change pin-outs by flipping the correct switches.
