ICS connecting automatically

[Hjalmar Leon]

I have two computers with ICS. My problem is that every time I turn on the
client computer, the host computer dials up automatically my internet
connnection. How can I prevent the client computer to tell the host to dial
up automatically when I turn the client on?
Thanks

You need to find out what is causing it to connect in the first place. You may have AdWare
or SpyWare causing the machine to want to connect to the Internet. Based upon your NOT
obfuscating your email address, a Trojan, AdWare or SpyWare are good possibilities.

If you are using Broadband ISP (cable or DSL) I highly suggested DUMPING ICS and getting a
Cable/DSL Router such as the Linksys BEFSR41.

Thank you Andy. I got it right now with the Search for on-demand dialing in
Help.It was just the setting "establish a dial up connection..." I unchecked
that feature and no problem anymore
Thanks ! !
