Thanks in advance!

I have instaled win95 ver:B on my computer and I must have done something
wrong as when I boot up now,  I get the Dial up connection dialog box, with
the connect button highlighted, the connection works fine and as you can
see there is no problem connecting to the net.
However I don't want this box appearing when the computer boots, as my son
( 4 year old )  may decide to connect as he often plays games on the
computer by himself.

So before I go totaly crazy could someone please point me in the right
direction to remove this dam box.

Thanks once again for your help.

I had the same problem and  it was Norton as you say disabling the
internet monitor sorted it.
