    They keep on coming, annoyances. Last week I took M$ security update patches and since I have had Remote modem hung up several times. Sometimes they keep on coming after another that I just get connected and 3 seconds later disconnected. Is M$ doing this purpously I only ask :mad: @$#&
    Where to find the patches on puter to uninstall, add/remove on control panel ? Well I´m not sure a patch is causing this but obviously it is.

    Hi. Usually, when a M$ patch can be uninstalled, it is in the Add Remove Programs section of the control panel.
    If they are not there, then my next step would be to reinstall dial up networking.
    If that didn't work, I'd go back to an image.
    If you don't image your drive from time to time, this is a good case of showing the value of it.
    I mean that in the friendliest of terms. :D
    Someone else may be able to help and its New Years, so you might wait for one of the pros to give their opinion.
    I hope you get it sorted out. Sounds nasty.

    Ok guys one more time ...

    Upgrading my dial up network caused more extra pain in my @ss. Welldone M$, thank you very much. But I did not sit and wonder too long. I just had to check out my network settings. M$ added there an extra adapter; VPN(virtual private network) supported dun. It also rechanged my customized dial up network max MTU(576) to value ZERO, what caused surfing almost impossible. Further more: It rechanged my customized registry values at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic
    es\VxD\MSTCP\ServiceProvider as default, what caused fast opera browsing became so painful slow I almost hanged myself. (the values are back now all of them as they should be:

    Class - 01 00 00 00
    DnsPriority - 01 00 00 00
    HostsPriority - 01 00 00 00
    LocalPriority - 01 00 00 00
    NetbtPriority - 01 00 00 00

    Hooray for M$ :D
    All this just because of I went installing M$ security patches for windows, go figure.

    I surfed on Root´s thread:
    http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=3677

    Root, I think this should be printed out and nailed in walls. You got a karma cookie again. I hope I learnt something now. Atleast trust no 1 (read M$)

    Are you sure your modem is not hanging up when a phone call comes in? Call forwarding disabled? *71 I think
