| 188273 | 2003-10-31 22:17:00 | Hi There, Each time I startup windows ME some program attempts to dial out. I have used System Mechanic to check out for programs in startup and registry and nothing is there that needs to dial. How do I find what or who is trying to dial out to the internet and how do I stop it? Thanks in anticipation. |

| 188276 | 2003-11-02 19:31:00 | I had this - go to IE/tools/internetoptions/advanced and scroll down to security. Find "Check for publishers certificate revocation", and if it is checked then uncheck it. best of luck. T |

| 188278 | 2003-11-03 06:30:00 | I installed IE6 last week, and it caused problems with Nortons 2003, and also kept trying to dial up every time I started the puter. I found part of the problem in the options of ie6. It had check for ie updates ticked. and once I unticked that, that part of the problem went. I have since uninstalled ie6 as I didn't get rid of the problem with nortons, and didn't have time to work through the hassles. | supergran (108) | ||

| 188280 | 2003-11-03 08:08:00 | Tony F, the error message I kept getting was something about ccapp, and it sent me somewhere in the Nortons site to reinstall it, which I did, then as soon as I rebooted, Nortons antivirus wasn't running again, so I just uninstalled Ie6. I will try again later in the week, have written down what you wrote, and see how I go then. Thanks :8} | supergran (108) | ||
| 188281 | 2003-11-03 10:03:00 | definitely nortons - "common client application" happened after updating ccap via liveupdate - reinstalled norton then havent updated ccap in liveupdate and no more problems (using opera 7.2) | xerxes3 (4810) | ||
| 188282 | 2003-11-03 10:06:00 | symantic common client app is the culprit - had this problem with opera 7 after updating it - reinstalled norton then deselected ccap update in liveupdate - no more dialouts | xerxes3 (4810) | ||
