How do I identify which program keeps trying to access the
internet by prompting me 'constantly' to connect by
bringing uo the dial-up conncetion box?
 
You can try Zonealarm firewall. But are you absolutely
sure it's not just Internet Explorer?

Zonealarm pops a message everytime a program tries to
interact with a network.
 
Julie,

Sounds like he same problem I had for over a month. Finally traced it to
the following Service in Windows XP....

"Remote Access Auto Connection Manager ----Creates a connection to a remote
network whenever a program references a remote DNS or NetBIOS name or
address."

I set it to not start automatically, set it to manual start. Presto
problem gone.
