I have few computers connected on a small ethernet home network, via a
residential gateway (i.e., router), that allow the computers to share files
and printers, and share a cable Internet connection. Most of the computers
on my network don't even have have dialup modems, and (mercifully) I haven't
had the need to use dialup services in over six years. However, in my IE
Options CONNECTION tab it shows that an MSN dialup connection has been set
up.
At times, I have received a popup box with some kind of message regarding
the dialup connection, and about working offline. Of course I'm not
attempting a dialup connection. I've since changed my connections settings
to NEVER DIAL A CONNECTION, but I would really like to just remove the dialup
connection so as not to have any conflicts in my system or Internet access in
the future.
My question: Would I be causing any problems for myself down the road if I
just remove that dialup connection, and if removing it would not be problem,
then how would I safely and properly do so?
Thanks in advance for your help.
