| 287161 | 2004-11-02 10:04:00 | To disable autodial, follow these steps: Click Start, and then click Control Panel. If you are using Category View, click Network and Internet Connections. Click Network Connections, and then on the Advanced menu at the top, click Dial-up Preferences. Click the Autodial tab. Click to clear the check boxes that are listed under Enable autodial by location. Click to select the Always ask me before autodialing check box (if not already selected). . Click to select the Disable autodial while I am logged on check box. Click OK, and then close the Network Connections dialog box. |

| 287163 | 2004-11-02 19:10:00 | Hmm it sounds like it might be a dialler. If its still dialling out. I would either go to start/run and type msconfig. Then go to the startup tab. See if there are any strange entries there. And untick it. Or press (Ctrl-Alt-Del) to bring up task manager and tell us whats there. If its still dialling out, and running, it'll be in here. If it is a dialler, and its still in your system, you'll soon find out when u get your next phonebill! |

| 287164 | 2004-11-03 05:12:00 | Yes, found it in Task manager. If I cancel Process, it starts up again. Did a search for the file then deleted it but still comes back. At work tonight but think the file name in "rasdial" or "rasauto" something like that. How do I kill it? |

| 287165 | 2004-11-03 05:26:00 | Just rang telecom "shaking" But NO tolls or 0900 numbers have been rung...whew! I did update drivers after new istall of windows (video and soundblaster) can't remember which one but one wanted to have something like a live update...things get a little fuzzy now so might go to web sights to track which one it is. |

| 287166 | 2004-11-03 05:27:00 | Nothing in startup | jferg (3232) | ||
| 287167 | 2004-11-03 05:32:00 | gday, have you run adaware and spybot? they will almost definitely find it if you have a dialer running a muck. Perhaps you have not been billed for anything as you have always been there to cancel the dialing. dave. |

| 287168 | 2004-11-03 05:38:00 | No, sometimes the wifeE turns it on and leaves it and have run adware but not spybot |

| 287169 | 2004-11-03 05:43:00 | According to Google, rasauto is a trojan or a dialler. I think the entry for it is in the registry somewhere. Thats where and how it runs, when u boot up Windows. It looks like it installs itself as a service. Hmm altho rasautou (notice the u) and rasauto.dll are part of XP, (I think), and so is rasdial. BUT I dont think it runs normally in the background. |
