I have DSL and I'm always connected to the internet. The connect to the internet box keeps coming up though and I can't use IE because it says I'm offline, I have to use MSN. I have fixed this before, turning something to auto but I can't remember what. Can someone please help me out? Thanks!!

    Choose " Detect Settings Automatically" or something similar, in your connection.

    You could go into IE>Tools>Internet Options>Connection. Set it to never dial a connection.
