270869 2004-09-10 04:11:00 I can connect my laptop and my PC together and have them happily talk to each other but while they are connected together I am being asked to connect to the internet by both computers. How can I stop this? Both are running windows XP. armitape (2109)
270870 2004-09-10 05:19:00 Does it come up with the dialup you mean?? Might be spyware, if uve disabled the option Tools/Internet options / Connection / never dial a connection.

Do you have a firewall? Or is it the firewall thats telling u something wants to get access to the net??

disable dial on demand...
