With Win95 and 98 and using NS 4.7x with dial-up networking (modem) upon
double clicking Netscape's icon my dialer pops up. It happens with IE
also. With Windows 2000 when I launch IE my dialer pops up. It won't
work with NS and I like this feature as it saves keystrokes. With 2000 I
can't get this to happen reliably after setting the auto dial and auto
connection service to automatic. No matter if the services are on or
off, IE will pop up a dialer. If they are on and you use Netscape then
it either works right or when Windows starts it prompts to auto dial
without any programs starting up. Because I am unable to track down what
is causing this to happen, I would like to find a resource to give me a
registry tweak or other solution to make the auto dial feature perform
just the way it does with Netscape and Win 98. No browser, no dialer
window. It's frustrating because just when I get it working I'll start
Windows and there's that annoying dialer. When I launch NS the dialer
pops up. Turn off the services, restart Windows, no dialer prompt but
also no connection when I use NS yet double-click IE and up pops a
dialer window. Sorry for babbling. I just got real used to these
features with '95 and '98. Any suggestions?
