I have XP will all service packs. I am running on broadband but my
old dialup modem box keeps popping up wanting me to dial in to my old
service provider. When I cancel out of close the box and try to get on
the network, I get a message saying I am offline.

How do I disable the dial up without jeopardizing my broadband.

Thanks

Open Internet Properties and under Connections tab, click "Never dial a
connection". If you have ADSL, you need to remove the dial-up modem but
leave the dsl, and otherwise leave that area alone.

You should have mentioned what isp you were using before, such as AOL as
that could have a bearing on how its dialing is stopped. Also explain
what type of broadband connection you have, such as ADSL, Cable, ISDN, etc..
