I cannot confirm this, as I also use both at home: sometimes I'm
connected while web-surfing and check mail from time to time (alt-F2).
Sometimes I am not connected, but due to my addiction (see
Organization in my header <g>), hit alt-F2 in passing quite often.
I do get error reports sometimes, but these are always due to a bad
telephone connection AFAIK.

Do you get this error *always* when you hit alt-F2 while not yet
connected, or only sometimes?
If so, do you manually connect with the same DUN file? - I mean
Account/Properties/Network/Dial Up Networking Connection. I have a
pop-down list showing all the DUN connections I have installed on my
PC. I usually use only one, at that is the same for both manually
connecting and letting TB do the honours. If the DUN connection you
have selected here is different from the one you use for manual
connections, that may be the cause of the error.
I take it you have "Use an existing Dial-up connection (if any)"
checked.
I cannot think of anything else that could be different.
