SYMPTOMS
When you check for mail using Microsoft Outlook 98 configured to use the AT&T Worldnet Internet service provider, Microsoft Internet Explorer opens too. Additionally, if you have Outlook set to disconnect when finished sending and receiving, you remain connected after mail is delivered.
CAUSE
The AT&T Worldnet installation is set to start Microsoft Internet Explorer once you connect to the service. Because Microsoft Internet Explorer is controlling the dialing, the connection is not dropped when all mail is delivered.
RESOLUTION
To stop Microsoft Internet Explorer from starting when you connect to AT&T Worldnet, follow these steps:
- Double-click the AT&T icon on the desktop.
- In AT&T Configurable Software click to clear "Start Internet software after connecting to AT&T."
- Quit the AT&T software.
REFERENCES
AT&T Worldnet is manufactured by AT&T, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
