Don't know what is causing it, but our dial up connection
automatically pops up. The auto connection is turned off
so its not dialing but sometimes you will have to close it
8-10 times before it stays closed. Is there someplace to
look to see what is causing it to open? We have run Norton
2003 with updated virus definations and also Spybot for
those type of programs.

I appreciate your help
 
you will probably have to delete the connection and
recreate a new one. it is not uncommon for this to happen.
if it is dial up make sure you mark all perameteres down
first the if need be reinstall software. (98-xp-2ooo) use
built in connection program-
 
one other thing to consider is that the dial up networking
and the stack in network neighbourhood is also usually the
cause of this . it effects the reg settings , so by also
removing the stack and replacing this ( as long as you
have the drivers for the hardware installed in it ,,EI
modem , nic then remove these elements and shut down and
reinstall to clear this.
if last resort you will have to edit the reg ( for win 98-
95-and me)( search also on m/soft for " page cannot be
displayed" this is an easy fix -need o/s cd , but is it
cure of the issue.
