I have installed Win2K Pro on one machine, which is standalone (at least for now), no NIC, etc.... I have one DUN connection to NetZero. Whenever I log on, I have to go into the netzero dun connection and check to display in task bar. If I log off netzero and immediately log back on, I again have to go into properties and check off to display in taskbar. Any ideas on this? Microsoft has shown to be useless in troubleshooting this. I think there is a registry hack that would fix this, but I'm not sure where to start looking. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Scott,

My advice would be to not be so cheap. I know that Netzero is free, but for only $5 a month you can get AT&T internet service that is much better. Netzero gets weird opening extra windows and placing ad bars on the desktop.
Spend a littleextra money and solve your problems.
Also, what kind of technical answer did you expect by only putting up 15 points for grab. I see that you cheapness goes even beyond real dollars into "cybercurrency".

Bottom line - nothing in life is free. Spend a little once and a while.
