constant internet dialing

Hi, I have a problem the internet connection at home, I have a network of 3 computers, the one that connects to the internet has a extrernal modem and OS is ME. We have 5 hour session times for the internet. the acutal problem: every time I want to reconnect, it says there is another program dialing, this is when there is nothing else actually open. and I can kinda see it's trying to connect, cause it kinda flashes for a second down in the taskbar. I have looked at the properties to make sure redial isn't on and so on. but everything seems a ok. I think this problem may also be causing disconnection problems, as it sometimes disconnects a few seconds after. I did used to have the internet connection on another computer with an internal modem, but that was just a temporary thing and it didn't have any problems. why is this happening???!!??!! :-@

hmm tried that, I don't think it's doing the dialing any more........... it only found 14 components from mainly cydoor and cookies. soo not soo to much. still have disconnection problems, where it connects for like 0.003 of a second and disconnects. is that the modem? do I need a init string??
