Using IE 6 on a WinNT machine. It is setup to automatically detect setings from our local area network and works fine. The problem is that this machine needs to stay dialed into another network all day. I have a dial up configuration setup and whenever it is dialed into this other network and tries to open up IE, it won't detect the settings from our local network. It appears as if its trying to use the dial up settings to connect to the internet. It ends up timing out. Is there some way, when this computer is dialed out, to tell it to use the local network settings to open the internet browser? I had the same problem with a Win2K machine and posted thread in the Internet Explorer forum and was able to get a good response ( Thread608-539183 ). Just need to know how to resolve this problem with an NT machine. Thanks
