Hi, I've just sent in this 'wish' to microsoft, but really should have
asked here, so maybe someone may know if this is possible...
[XP XP1]: For advanced users, it would be good to have more flexibility
with the 'default internet connection'. Under
InternetOptions->Connections, I have enabled 'Always dial my default
connection', so programs can automatically connect to the internet. For
example SETI, my mail client or browser. In all these cases I want the
same ISP called; I also have a 'disconnect after 5mins idle time' setting.
However for SETI, I'd like the PC to disconnect immediately when SETI
completes its upload/download. If my mail client initialised the
connection then I'd like it to disconnect after 15 minutes idle time,
but if the browser initiated the connection then I'd like it to
disconnect after 5 minutes.
Therefore although there is one connection used, the time before
auto-disconnect could change depending on which application requested
the connection.
