I know the culprit....

DNS logging found it :-)

My laptop is trying to access its domain at work.

Just need to configue the DNS blocking to stop it.

There is a "do NOT dial on demand for [domains]". That should do
the trick. Hopefullly it will allow "*.domain" rather than having
to list all the sub domains. BT has quite a few of those!

Will try tonight.

I used to use ICS but it doesnt dial on demand under Win98. Does it under
Win2K Pro?

Currently using iPaq on the train to London :-)
