Hi, Dave,

seems that there is something running in the background, that uses DUN too. Do
you use a download-manager like GetRight or Go!Zilla ?
If so, it's possible that there is a switch activated which tells windows to
auto-launch at start.
Other programs using net-connection in any way might cause similar problems.
