IE has stopped using the "always dial my default connection" to connect to the net. I can manually get on to the net then run IE. The system is connected to a network but does not use a proxy for internet access. It is also running XP Pro ?

have you perhaps inadvertently changed user profiles?
are you using a dial-up connection or broadband?
are you using AOL?
sorry if this is what you already know, but are you asking how to get IE configured back to 'always dial my default connection'?
that is under Internet Options, Connection. while you are in there, check to see which connection is set as your default. maybe that is the problem? and you can fix by highlighting the connection and choosing Set Default...
what do you think has changed/occured that might have caused this?
