The dial-up connection that comes up when a program asks for a dial-up connection includes a check box to connect automatically. You do have to have windows set to save the password and have that working. You would also need to set the desired dial-upconnection as being the default one. If you have Internet Explorer 5, you will need to have it dial as needed. There are a number of options on the connections tab of the internet properties for both versions of Internet Explorer that control this feature. I hope that this helps. 8-).
