Hi bcastner,
Thanks for the input. However,
1) what task do you schedule to make the connection? (As I mentioned, running an Ant task doesn't seem to do it. Maybe there's a Windows program that can be run - perhaps launching IE with a parameter? - tho I'm not sure how to do that.)
2) how do...
Is there a way to get XP/Pro to, at a specified time, dial up an phone number (which happens to be an ISP access point), get connected, run a process and then disconnect? The process I'm uses Ant with an XML buildfile, but I can't find any Ant task that can cause XP to dial up the connection...

Some time ago I noticed that the search function of my XP/Pro would *not* search inside Java source files. (I wouldn't find 'import' in '.java' files, for example.) A friend showed me a very complex way to change the defaults and - lo and behold: it worked!
