modem issue
« on: October 12, 2005, 03:13:54 PM »
Hello guys, it seems I'll be needing your advice again.
This morning I turned on my computer and tried to connect to the internet, but modems didn't dial a right number. I checked for viruses and spyware and there wasn't any. When I restarted computer everything worked OK. In the afternoon whole story was same. It appears my modem when go crazy dial home numbers in my town. I use cheap soft modem with conexant chip. Again when comp is restarted everything is OK. Don't know what coud that be, do you have any advice?

Well, interesting thing is that when I try to connect 100 times only 2 times I get that problem, rest is Ok. I'll check for spyware

Do you know any software tool with which I can find out what number is exactly dialed?
