Are you sure that's the message? At step 17 of http://www.unf.edu/compserv/helpdesk/xp/ is the more common issue where that checkbox was checked to ask the user to supply the phone number.

I have Windows XP with a V92 modem. When I try to connect to the Internet, a box pops up telling me I have to dial the number manually. It will then connect. I have called my servers support technician and we have gone through all the settings and they are correct. The technician doesn't know what causes this.
Anybody have any ideas? Any help will be appreciated.
