Auto Disconnect Won't Disconnect

[B. J.]

I set my Auto Disconnect to disconnect from the internet
if idle for 10 minutes but it never disconnects. I also
tried 15 and 30 minutes with no results.I am using Windows
98SE/Internet Explorer 6.0. I went in and unchecked Enable
Third Party Browser Extension like someone suggested but
no luck. I also deleted my dialup connection and created a
new one but still no luck. Any help in this matter will be
deeply appreciated. Thanks, B. J.

When you test the settings, are you using the computer at all? I've
had the prompt to disconnect appear when I've been surfing via the
keyboard for some time without touching the mouse. I'm not entirely
clear on how the term "idle" is interpreted.
