I have a Dell laptop that used to have a broadband connection, but have since switched to dial up. Here's my problem - whenever I double click on the blue e, I get a message that says, "Web page not available offline." there are 2 buttons below, one that says Connect and the other that says "Stay Offline" I click connect, and my dial up connects me to the internet. My question is, how do I make that Offline screen not come up when I want to connect to the internet? I never want to stay offline, I just want to connect. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Thank you for your response, balakir, but there already was a check in the "always dial my default connection" box, and the default connection was correct. Are there any other ideas????
