Windows XP SP2 with DSL wants to use dial-up

I've searched on this, and I apologize if I've missed the answer because I
didn't use the right search terms.

I'm running Windows XP SP2. I have a DSL gateway which I use for my
internet access. However, on occasion, I need to access resources at the
University through my dial-up account. So I have had that set up as well.

What's driving me nuts is that if I attempt to view a web page and the
computer can't access the site through the DSL connection (it's down, or
the URL is wrong), then it wants to connect through the dial-up account.

Is there any way to get XP to ignore the dial-up connection?

I've been trying to solve this one for a year.
 
Never mind. Wouldn't you know that immediately after sending my post, I
came across a message that explained it exactly?

Sorry for the waste of bandwidth.
