dial-up connection bax question
I am trying to use outlook express as a newsgroup viewer. When I open it
and select a newsgroup I get a dial-up connection box. I am already connected so I just close the box and everything works ok. That means it is not necessary. How do I get it to go far, far away and stay there. It is getting to be a big pain in butt. Lots of thanks to anyone that can help.
