Thanks for this
However, it is not a problem with it remembering the password. his is fine. If I
double click on my connection icon, it will dial in and connect with no problem.
The problem comes when there is a dropped line. I want the computer to automatically
re-dial, which is what it has always done until recently.
However, it now comes up with a dialogue box which simply asks if I would liie to
re-connect. Until I click 'yes' it will not re-dial.
I often leave the computer while it is downloading and it is frustrating to return
and find that the line has been dropped and the download hasn't completed.
