"Do you want to Disconnect?" dialog is gone. Can we get it back?

[Brad]

A friend checke the box next to "Don't ask again".
Is there a way to get that dialog back?
(She says it's too inconvenient to right-click the icon in the System Tray and click
Disconnect)!
Thanks!
Brad

Try this:
-Open IE, click Tools | Internet Options
-Click the Connection tab
-Double-click on your Internet Connection, click "Advanced"
-Click "Disconnect if idle for XX minutes" checkbox to clear it
-Click OK, click OK again.

If the above suggestion doesn't work, try modifying the EnableAutodisconnect
value in registry:
(Backup your registry first)
-open regedit, navigate to this branch:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings]

-Double-click the EnableAutodisconnect and change the data value to 01 00 00
00

-After you make this change and quit Registry Editor, restart your
computer.

Try the following:
Start Regedit and got to the following registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\RemoteAccess\Profile\<Connection>

Now look at the following DWORDS.

EnableExitDisconnect
EnableAutodisconnect

If either one has the data of 00 00 00 00, right click the value an
select Modify.
Change the data to 01 00 00 00.

Also check this registry key.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings

Look at the DWORD EnableAutodisconnect

If this value has the data of 00 00 00 00, change it to 01 00 00 00

Remember to reboot the computer
