I reconnected and through the speaker I could hear the dial tone. Before it started dialling the number I suddenly heard the modem noise (when the modem at the other end answers) then my connection bar at the top right suddenly displayed connected before it had even finished.
I'm guessing you're maybe using an iBook or some other new-ish Mac with Mac OS X and the internal modem. They do that occasionally.
