You may get page can't be displayed or unable to login to pop server but you won't get a DUN error.
By the way it is better to select "Always dial my default connection" in your case.

The way I was getting the dial up was by clicking on the icon in network connections. That connected , but no response from IE or OE.

301116 2004-12-10 01:08:00 I had this problem with a PC on XP Pro last week
The Anti virus was out of date & several virus & about 142 data miners etc were found.
1]The dial up would go on line & then cut off. Checked all settings etc but no change.
2] The Jetstream would be connected, ikon on task bar but no signal coming through. Tried shutting down Zone alarm but no different. Another PC on the same Router working OK.
Changed 'wsock32.dll' & 'winsock.dll', no improvement.

Ended up doin a clean reinstall with sp2, now OK.

301117 2004-12-10 07:11:00 Try putting +ms=v90,0 into Extra Initialization Commands in Control Panel\Phone and Modem Options\Modems\Properties\Advanced.
It worked for me, mind you that was a new installation but it can't hurt to try it.
