get yourself a firewall.

9144 2001-02-24 13:07:00 Have you installed any new software recently? If so, then the new program may be wanting to dial out. Like the previous responder said, a firewall, such as ZoneAlarm, will identify the program once the connection is made. Then you can decide if you wish it to connect. Guest (0)
