re: Question about 'Dial-up Connection box pops up repeatedly Monday, March 20, 2006 at 9:33 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Dan Weisberg (8 messages posted) Norton Anti-Virus was causing the recurrent dial-up connection box pop up problem for me. In addition, I got sick of Symantec constantly forcing me to pay for upgrades, and their customer service sucks. So I removed NAV and replaced it with AVG free edition. It is a fantastic anti-virus program that runs and updates itself in the background. Plus, it's free and they never pester me to pay for updates and upgrades.
