Trayclnt possessed... Need Exorcist

[tyhand]

Hi all,


Since about April 10th, everytime I start up AND shut down my PC,
my Internet Dial-UP/Sign In Box automatically pops up.

I've tried disabling this by going to Control Panel > Internet Options >
Connections and clicking the radio button titled "Never dial a connection"
as opposed to "Always dial my default connection".

The thing is that when I start up my computer again, my Dial-Up/Sign In
Box appears again! But wait, there's more... When I check on the 'Connections'
Tab in Internet Options, the option for "Always dial my default connection"
is highlighted! Hmmm... what's MSN up to?

Is there a specific file or script that may be causing this?
Upon shut down, I pressed CTRL+ALT+DEL to see what was still running
and I came up with TrayClnt and Rundll32.

I've also cautiously checked my Registry under >
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\RemoteAccess\Profile\MSN Internet Access and saw a
file named AutodialDllName in the root C:\PROGRAM FILES\MSNIA\CustDial.dll
Could this be the culprit causing the problem?

Any help in exorcising this Dial-Up demon is greatly appreciated.
I currently run the following:
MSNIA ver 5.6
IE ver 5.5
TrayClnt ver 6.0
Windows 98

Thanks! Peace!

Have the freebie Zone Alarm firewall?

Uncheck it from the startup list in msconfig under startup items...
Start it up when you're going online and it'll dial out on it's own.

YOU POSTED THE BELOW. I have EXACTLY the same system and same problem. I have removed Trayclnt from msconfig start up. I have contacted MS a million times. Someone please tell me the answer to this. I am going nutty with constant popup of sign in box and trayclnt not responding!!

Thank you SO much. Ms. Nutty

Uninstall MSN network if you don't use it.
