Modem Auto Dialing Problem
LockedMy computer dials the phone for no apparent reason. This occurs at odd times without any warning or even a notice of why. Nothing comes up on the screen telling me which program is doing the dialing or what number is being dialed.
I suspected that it was an old fax that never got through and was just being automatically redialed over and over but I’m not sure of that.
The number beig dialed is obviously long distance because if I pick up the phone there is always a recording saying that “you must dial a 1 or 0 when calling this number” and since the call is never completed, it just does it again.
I’ve even been knocked offline on occasion by my own computer so that it could dial the phone.
How do I find the offending software and cancel the call.
