Has this just started happening or has he always had this problem?
Have you got latest SP installed for Win 2k?
If he goes into the actual Dialup Networking folder is he able to disconnect from there?
Is there more than on type of network / dialup connection?
Is there a network card in machine?
Cheers

Service pack 4, Won't disconnect from dialup folder.
No network card (56k dialup). only started happening recently. Everything looks fine !

Have you scanned for viruses, etc. with up-to-date antivirus/spyware software?. I remember a couple of viruses doing pretty much the same thing.

I thought everyone in their right mind would have a virus scanner running, but no he had 5 viruses running, cleaned it and everything ok. Gave myself a hard slap on the wrist !!!
