When I open My Computer, the Recycle Bin, Windows
Explorer, (and most folders in Windows Explorer)the Dial
Up Connection dialog box appears. It does not connect
because I do not have DUC on automatic but the pop-up is
an annoyance and placing strain on mouse hand.

I can open these program/folders on the desktop or any
icon, it doesn't matter. I've run the latest spyware and
virus scan and nothing pops up. Corrupted file maybe?

Any ideas? Thanks
 
With IE open, go to Tools > Options > Advanced. Scroll down to Security.
Uncheck "Check for publisher's certificate" and "Check for server
certificate".
 
That has started happening to me, I use Freeserve, and
when I boot up, I keep getting my dial up connection box
appear. If you have any luck, could you let me know?
Thanks. Ian
