Why, when I switch users, (not log off) does my internet
connection break? It's very annoying to keep redialing
(nasty 56K!)

According to MS article 305896 "SYMPTOMS
When you connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP)
and then switch to a different user, the Internet
connection remains active without displaying a message.
STATUS
This behavior is by design."

I tried AT&T online chat....the guy said it was an MS
issue.

Any help is appreciated!
