Stopping Auto-connect



I don't mean launching when Windows starts up, I mean how do I stop it from
automatically connecting me in when my computer comes out of sleep mode
and/or I launch it... I generally keep it at "appear Offline", but any time I
wake my computer back up it automatically connects and puts me back in as
"Online", and I'd just like it to mind it's own freaking business, and not
connect until I actually do something to tell it too.
