Hello. When I boot up, the dialer starts up asking to
connect to my default dialup connection. I haven't
determined an exact pattern but, a few times through the
day (approx. 0-3 times) the dialer will pop up asking to
connect. If I leave the computer on through the night
(approx. 14 hrs.) I find 5 Dial-up connection windows on
top each other, each one offering to connect. I've checked
all of the settings I can find re: dial-up connections,
modem configuration, Windows and McAfee Anti-Virus update
settings. I should mention this seemed to begin after a
major update from both Windows and McAfee about 3 weeks
ago.
Can you please help me stop the dialer from starting up
without my permission? Thank you.
