Modem keeps dialling when i open files
![]() |
can any of you help a damsel in distress?
For the last couple few days my modem keeps dialling the internet. It's a right pain. :mad:
When I start the computer, its away dialling. I click cancel and another box opens up, to which I click 'work offline'. Then the previous box appears and I have to click cancel again, then the other box, click 'work offline' again. Then it stops.
But if I try to open a Word file, it starts dialling away like a madman again, with me clicking and clicking these two boxes that appear as soon as I click the other. During the opening of Word files these boxes appear six times each (that's 12 times I have to click 'cancel' and 'work offline') and it takes well over a minute to open a Word file.
Meanwhile, I can open jpeg files ok, but if I right click on a jpeg icon the modem is dialling again and I have to click 'cancel' etc another four times before I can do what I intended when right-clicking.
This happens when I try to open other programmes too.
I have tried everything with this problem but nothing seems to work. It started after a NIS Live Update. I have tried System Restore but my computer says it can't (even though I enabled it). When I try to set up my own restore point the computer refuses to do it. The calender screen seems to be frozen, too.
My home workstation is Windows Me.
Is there a gallant knight in shining armour or a fellow technobabe who can help me pleeeeease??? Many thanks

It sounds like some kind of virus-related problem to me. Go to this thread:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread5690.html
Get Spybot and Ad-Adware; do the online virus scan as well.
After you run those, if you still have a problem, get hijackthis from here:
http://www.merijn.org/files/hijackthis_sfx.exe
Close all browser windows, scan with hijackthis, save the log, then copy and paste it in a new thread in the Virus forum along with the problem and steps you've already tried.
In the meantime, try disconnecting your modem (unplug it) when you don't actually need internet access.

thankyou very much for taking the time to help
,
I will give it a go. I've scanned with Norton and nothing was found. Norton is usually very thorough, despite its annoying querks.
But I haven't done an online virus scan.
I also forgot to mention that the problem persists when the modem is unplugged.
In another bizzare twist, my next door neighbour has just revealed she has the same problem. We both have the same ISP (Freeserve, which is now Wanadoo).
Does this shed a different light on the matter?
Many thanks again.

the plot thickens...
In fact its beginning to be quite a challenge for the best techie out there.
I did an online scan on the webroot site. It found two adware spies and 52 adware cookies. Nothing too bad. I bought, downloaded and installed Spy Sweeper. I scanned my computer. We quarantined then deleted the 2 adware spies and the 52 adware cookies.
Yet the problem persists!!!
aaaaaaaaaaaargh!!!
any one interested in this, cos it sure as hell is unusual!
(being as I'm new here, and dont know my way about yet, feel free to move this thread if you feel it is in the wrong forum)

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.
However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.

thnks again guys,
sorry didnt know what hijackthis was. i've downloaded it now, so will give it a go. Will also check if it is dialling same number as normal (though i'm sure it is). I've tried unchecking the dial automatically box many times, it just reappears, checked.
i'll be back later, no doubt! might not be today though, got to go out. thanks again, much appreciated!
