dial up box

Can anyone help everytime i start my computer i get the
freeserve log on connection box on the screen i have to
click close/end a couple of times to close it down as it
keeps appearing. If i wanted to go on the net or use email
i use to double click the desk top icons and THEN the box
would appear, i know that this is not a big deal but i
find it really annoying any help or advice would be
appreciated.
Kind Regards
Eldon

In Internet Explorer you can click on
Tools - > Internet Options -> Connections
And select never dial a connection.

If that doesn't stop it, you will have to see what is loading at
system startup that wants to phone home. It could be anything. Kerio
firewall dns reverse lookups is one such thing which causes this and
can be switched off so it's not necessarily spyware or malware you
need to look for.

You may have a virus/spyware hijack

download the Stinger from here and run it to make sure that A-V-disabling
viruses are not present on your PC
http://download.nai.com/products/mca...rt/stinger.exe

- update your virus scanner and run a full system scan of all files.

download AdAware from www.lavasoftusa.com, install, update, and run it to
remove spyware, adware,
and other such nasties from your system.
