Hi All,

I have a problem with the internet connection. Every time i start my computer, the window for the internet connection pops up, even though i do not click on the icon. Also sometimes, while working with other applications, the dial up connection window just pops up and every time i have to close down the window. This becomes very annoying as i get it more than once within minutes.

Could anyone please help me so that i can solving this problem

You have a program running that is trying to access the internet.

Startup-->Run-->msconfig and search trough the programs that run in the Startup tab to know what "could be"...

Another thing is run HijackThis and post here the result of the scan...

go into internet explorer/tools/options/connections and change it to "never dial a connection"

This will stop the popups. When you want on the internet you will manually have to start up your modem dialup
