Hi Malan,
I looked at my 2000 Pro machine and do not see the options you are speaking of. Are they in
Internet Explorer versus the actual dial-up connection icon? I would suggest going to the
properties of the dial-up icon and set the settings in there under Options to disconnect when
idle.
Hope this helps,
Gary
