I am new here and I just deleted my post.
My computer is dialing up to the internet on its own. I just put a new hard-drive in and a new dial-up modem. It dials up say in the morning after I started the computer.
I have to shut it off every night. I can't put in on stand-by, because the moden when I go to
control panel click on
phone and modems the modem
is not present.
I leave the computer on all day and then when I am not on-line for a while, the computer just dials-up.
I like to have the dial-up set so I didn't have to put the password in every-time. But now I can't do that because the computer dials-up and goes on-line.
So I have it set so I have to put the password in and the computer still dials-up, but now it can't connect. It tries three times every 60 seconds, and then it just sits there and waits until I either cancel it or press re-dial.
And I tried this "Never dial a connection" It doesn't do any good.
