Hello It was told here in the forums and by pcpitstop that something included in my installation software called BroadJump Client Foundation was spyware so finally I uninstalled every that came in the software installation cd like the browser and etc. and now when I turn on my computer my modem doesnt connect automatically I have to connect by going to my network places signing in putting my modem access code and so on so I think that was the job of BroadJump Client Foundation to connect automatically for me so my question is is there a possible way I can configure something so it can connect automatically or else I'll have to install BroadJump Client Foundation again thanks in advance.

I have SBC Yahoo I also had that problem, but when I bought a router. The software that SBC gave me wasn't neccessary anymore. The computer connects directly to the Internet.

Cecil,

I posted here when I first got my DSL and they told me that client jump was spyware and a "SBC Tech" posted and told me that my modem was a router/modem so it didnt need anyother sofware to connect but I guess it need client jump...

Karunt,

Thanks for the link I did everything it told me to do so now I'll just wait until I return on my computer tommorrow and see if it worked and I'll post back and tell you my results thanks again.
