TURNING OFF THE CLOSE CONNECTION CONFIRMATION
Your computer may be configured so that Windows asks you if you want to close your Internet connection whenever you close your Web browser or your email program. If you find this reminder a nuisance, you can disable it easily enough. Go to Start, Settings, Control Panel and select Internet Options. Under the Connections tab, click once on your Internet connection and then click Settings. Click the Advanced button and then uncheck the Disconnect When Connection May No Longer Be Needed box. When you're finished, click OK.

When I had ME I used to be able to stay on line once I had connected without the box coming up asking me if I wanted to stay connected. Now on XP Home and I am still using Wanadoo Anytime so it does not matter how long I am on line so I would prefer to stop the box coming up I know there is a way to be able to do this but have forgotten. Can anyone help please.
