15372 2001-07-11 10:16:00 I have shared access to the internet from my old networked computer. If I click on the Internet browser icon or the Outlook Express icon it immediately starts to connect me to the net which is a bit annoying. I'd rather compose my email then connect when I want but it doesn't allow me to do that. Also how do I disconnect from the internet via the networked computer? Guest (0)
15373 2001-07-11 11:22:00 what software r u using??

at a guess if u r using win98 and windows ics you will have fun. try stopping it with your firewall. there is somewhere a manager for ics. have a search around for one.
the other much better way is to ditch ics and get sygate or wingate.

Open up Internet Explorer - or use Internet Options in your Control Panel.
Select the Connections tab and check all the details in your connections - one will most probably have Connect Automatically on one of the first tabs.
