Every so often XP pops up a window asking to dial-up. It happens when I'm using Firefox. I could just delete it but I need that connection incase my BB goes down. Why is XP wanting to dial when there's aperfectly good BB connection? :confused:

Is your broadband modem plugged into your computer or do you use a router?

You may have already tried this but if its a router then try setting the "Only dial when a network connection is not present" option in Internet Explorer properties.

Dont know if this will work for you but Ive used it a few times at work when computers had lots of different Connections.
 
In IE, Tools >>

Internet options >>

Connections >>

then "never dial a connection", it (the DUN connection) will be saved but never dialed
