Well like i said smurph this is from my past experience with dial up. I am not sure how it is done today. But my sister did have dial up aobut 6 months ago and she had to go thru this same thing. I know we want to make it easy for them but there are even limitations to what we can do.

thanx 4 ur reply again Makaveli213
shame this couldn't be resolved for FF or IE.....could a program or script be written to do this?
For example, AVG software upon PC startup automatically connects to internet and downloads latest update.

Maybe thru the Scheduled tasks it can. Not sure have never tried something like that. Maybe a script can be written for Firefox, or maybe an extension already exists, that when you load Firefox it does the dial up stuff for you. Other than that i dont know i will have to do some research on this.
