I use XP Pro on an ARM laptop that is 18 months old.

Is there any way to stop my computer from automatically
dialing an internet connection , without my having
initiated the action?

I know you guys must be tired of answering this question,
but it seems to be a common problem plaguing many xp
users...

Thank you for your time.
 
start internet explorer then click on tools then internet
options, go to the connections tab and click on the box
that says never dial a .... and it will never try to dial
automaticaly again.
 
In addition to that, go to the Control pannel and select Task Scheduler. In
the Task Scheduler there will be a list of applications you own that look
for regular updates by dialing out. Select each one and drill down and grab
control of the times and frequencies of the look up.
