Having never used OSX this is a guess, but have you set a checkbox somewhere
called 'dial on demand' or 'connect automatically when needed'?
Yes. But I had that option set right from the start, a year ago. This dial-up straight after boot problem only started about a week ago.

you may then want to review what things are set to look for an internet connection without your bidding and maybe reconfigure them to not jump in as soon as you make a manual connection, such as subscribed or published calendars.
I have a very simple startup. Background processes to listen for the scanner and a PDA. That's all.

Just a hunch...did you set up the internet at installation, and finish the
process?
As I recall, the OS X install just took my settings from OS 9, so I guess the answer is no.
I have used the process viewer utility, which gives the following list of administrator processes:
autodiskmount automount configd coreservicesd crashreporterd cron cupsd DirectoryService dynamic_pager inetd init kextd lookupd mach_init mDNSResponder netinfod nfsiod nfsiod nfsiod nfsiod ntpd pppd SecurityServer syslogd update
and this list for user processes:
AppleSpell ATSServer Dock Finder loginwindow Mail Mozilla Palm Desktop Background pbs Process Viewer Scanwise Button Monitor SystemUIServer Transport Monitor Window Manager
Does anyone see any strange items in there?
TIA
