Hi Adrian,

It was sent to adecom@ but here is what I wrote:

Will have a look at those logfiles later. But if you unplug the line from
the wall, then you surely would have something in the logs when something
is trying to dial out. Remember, that if a user has MSN working, that will
want to dial out. If a user is surfing the internet, that will dial out.
If a client is infected with spyware or virus, that will dial out.
If the clients ipconfigs have another DNS setting, that will dial out.

Which PCI card do you have?

You did answer the last question now. Can you tell me: did you run the
CEICW? Can you rerun it?
