Auto-Disconnect not working

When I close my browser, the auto-disconnect dialog box flashes for a spit second and then vanishes. I have to manually disconnect at that point.

It's a fresh install of Win98SE.
I deleted and recreated the dialup account.
I've tried turning off and then re-enabling auto-disconnect.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike, I need to know what browser you are using to help you out. Please leave me a note to let me know.

Alright Mike, do you have any other software running that uses the net. for example, download managers (Go!Zilla, Getright, etc.), something that is checking for updates all the time. . . anything like that? this has happened to me before when i had Go!Zilla constantly open. check that.

Do you have explorer setup as the DEFAULT browser ? Also Are you using the default connection to connect to the internet if not explorer tries to disconnect the default dialup connection ......

Just a thought .......
