Stop automatic dialing

[xtreemnet]

Hi

I have connected 2 XP machines using a 5 port hub. The host machine has shared the internet connection (56K). When the host is not connected the client automatically dials its local dial up connection and goes on internet. I have checked the internet options on the client, it says "Never dial a connection". Cannot figure out why it keeps dialing.

Can some body help?

Thanks,

Does it happen when Outlook is open on the machine? Outlook also has a dial-out feature when it checks for new mail. (if enabled) Check the Outlook options. (Might be the same for Outlook Express).

Obviously, some other application is trying to access the internet with a dial-up account.

I will check that and come back on that.
Thanks,
