| 91461 | 2002-10-21 21:07:00 | Hi When I boot my machine, the internet dial up window starts and will connect unless I cancel quickly. I think this has something to do with Netscape 7 but cannot find an option to stop it. Help please!!! |

| 91462 | 2002-10-21 21:10:00 | I have seen this before on a few PC's and the problem was always spyware of some sort. Download and install Ad-Aware and run it to clean these out. www.lavasoftusa.com |

| 91464 | 2002-10-21 22:14:00 | Yes I have run Add-Aware and got a clean bill of health. Not Zone Alarm but it does have Tiny Personal Firewall. |

| 91465 | 2002-10-21 23:21:00 | If it is XP check this. Go to ControlPanel/Network Connections From the menu at the top click on Advanced and select Dialup preferences Uncheck everything in "Enable Autodial from Location" |

| 91466 | 2002-10-22 00:42:00 | Rik, Open Tiny Personal Firewall, and turn off the auto-update option (it might be called something like "Automatically check for updates") - this should stop it trying to dial out to check for updates :) Mike. |

| 91468 | 2002-10-22 01:37:00 | It could be any number of things, file sharing programs, anti-virus software, anything that might want updates. Otherwise... You may have caught a virus... Congrats... ;) Chilling_Silence |
