Double click on icon on the Desktop. Arrow momentarily
changes to an hour glass then back to arrow. If I right
click on the icon on the Desktop and select open IE open
to a blank page with error message. But no dialup window
appears. Have to go the long way to get dailup window
then connecting to the Internet is fine. Any ideas how to
fix this problem.

I'd first check to make sure your connections are correct. First, go to your
dial up folder and see if you can dial manually by double clicking on your
dial up icon. If that works, then, go to the control panel, open Internet
Options. Click on the connections tab. Re-set your dial up connection as
your default. Select the option to always dial my default connection.

Then, scan your computer with Ad Aware or Spy Bot to make sure you do not
have any spyware. Update Windows from Microsoft and update your anti-virus
software.
