Windows XP Network Connections

clearz · 2003-12-22 22:53:39

Hi Everytime I log into XP I get asked which connection do I want to use to connect to the Internet. I click the 'Do not ask me again until the next time I log in' checkbox and then cancel. Is there a way to disable this altogether so it does not ask me. Thanks John.

Launch IE
in the Tools Menu, select Internet Options
Select the Connections tab, and in there select the 'Never dial a connection' radio button.

I'd check if you have any dodgy apps installe dthat are trying to access the network. This could be a virus or spyware, or something similiar.

Thanks. I ran Adaware and got a lot of results back.
