I just witnessed an odd phenomenon that I want to share with
you all.
I opened MS Outlook which in turn automatically dialed into
my ISP. The connection failed due to a busy signal (this
was only the second time in 18 months that has happened) and
DUN then displayed a dialog box stating that the connection
failed (or something just as cryptic) with a lonely little OK
button. I clicked OK and that was the end of that. I shut
down the dialup dialog box by clicking it's OK button but I
kept Outlook open.
I then opened MS IE 4 which also automatically dialed into my ISP.
Again the connection failed due to a busy signal BUT THIS TIME,
I got a dialog box saying that the line was busy and then it
redialed the number after a short pause -- without any action
or changes on my part.
Why would DUN react differently from one program to the next?????
Anyone have any suggestions or ideas?
