| 232105 | 2004-04-25 22:03:00 | I run Win 98 2nd ed. with Norton System works 04. Just last week for no reason when I turned my pc on, the "dial up connection box" popped up on startup and won't go away, until I push the cancel box, some 50x, even when I finally get a clear work screen, half way through work it will reappear. I have looked to see if I have any scheduling settings for the internet but it appears to be ok. Please can someone kill my D.U.B. pop-up. | Kenny (1287) | ||

Guessing here, but if your AV is not up to date is it Nortons trying to get updates before a full scan. Lately there has been almost daily updates. Suggest update, do a full scan, run Adaware and Spybot. |

| 232110 | 2004-04-26 04:39:00 | Have a look in Internet Explorer/Tools/Internet Options. Under the advanced tab at the bottom under the security section see if "Check for publishers certificate revocation" is ticked. If so untick and see if that makes a difference. B. |

| 232111 | 2004-04-26 07:52:00 | Second thoughts, do you have a firewall like Zone Alarm ?, suggest check that no settings have been altered. Just had Generic Host trying to go on line and preventing making an Internet connection until No was clicked | FrankS (257) | ||
| 232112 | 2004-04-26 11:16:00 | I use windows98 plus on my desktop. Had same problem couple of days ago. Ran Adaware and like magic- no more dial up connection pop up. | hp4200 (4026) | ||
| 232113 | 2004-04-26 22:01:00 | checked and ok | Kenny (1287) | ||
| 232114 | 2004-04-26 22:05:00 | I do have Zone Alarm but I then ran Adaware and presto, Thanks to every one for your thoughts, especially hp4200. Cheers guys | Kenny (1287) | ||
