Hello All,
My backup computer with Windows 98 SE has gotten into the habit of
randomly dialing my ISP, thus tying up my telephone line. Does anyone know
why this would happen and how it can be eliminated?
Since I need to have both my main and backup computers running, the only
workaround I could think of was to connect my main computer to my ISP first
then fire up my backup computer, which would show an error dialog box (No
Dial Tone). As long as the error was displayed, it could not again dial up
my ISP. Disconnecting my main computer from my ISP would then give me some
peace of mind.
