Go into Control Panel, open the modems folder, and click the connections tab. remove any check marks and then check "Never Dial a Connection". Apply and restart computer. Your dialer program will dial out when you tell it to and not automatically.

Hello there,

You have a program that is trying to connect to Internet, maybe an Antivirus or something, it is also posible that your computer has been hacked for someone.
I suggest you to go to Control panel - Internet Options - Connectios and click on Never Dial a connection.
If after reboot it keeps trying to connect then I recomend you to scan your computer maybe from Norton Web site or download protector plus from www.pspl.com and run it, just in case your computer is hacked by someone.

I hope it helps...
