Internet help

[wigan_rlfc]

I recently rebooted my whole computer. Everything is working fine apart from one little annoying thing. When I want to connect to the internet the dial-box that normally comes up isn't there and I have to "Start>Connect to>My connection>connect". I have windows XP. Does anyone know of a way of getting the dial-up box to come up when I open up Internet Explorer?

Try the connections tab of the Internet Explorer Tools>Internet Options screen...see if it's lost it's default conections or it might be set to never dial up (thus forcing you to do it mannually)

No, I have broadband but it won't connect unless I do it manually.
