    automatic dial-up

    Locked

    by arnoldpbody · about 20 years, 5 months ago

    How can I find out what application is dialing up the internet? Especially over a shared Internet connection. Outlook mail checking is turned off as well as any other applications I can think of, but something still wants to dial.

      In reply to automatic dial-up

      Go to http://www.zonelabs.com and get free application firewall ZoneAlarm install it and wait for misterious program to dial out. ZoneAlarm will pop up with msg. “This program “Name_Of_the_program” is trying to access internet”.”Do you want to allow this?”. Then you will know which program is trying to dial out.

      Hope this helps.
