Default OE6 problem with dialup connection

OE6 problem with dialup connection

Hi all

I have a rather strange problem with OE6 on a WINXP machine. I recently was
using a dailup connection and therefore had a connection created in network
connections. But now I have changed to ADSL which uses only the local area
connection and therefore does not need any dialing up. Now my problem is
that whenever I open OE6 it asks me to dial the dialup connection....and to
make it more confusing I had deleted the dial up connection!!! so I cant
understand what is wrong...

I also chose Never dial a connection in IE and made sure OE6 does not invoke
a dialup connection but still ...amazingly (or magically?) the dial up
connection is reappearing...

Can anyone advise what the problem might be and any other workarounds?
