If you heard the modem before . . . what changed? Did you install a new program or upgrade? Do you have the latest drivers for your modem?

Nokia - Whether I am working on a system with an external or internal modem, I always like to hear the dialup. Even with the volume low, if there is a problem, I'll "hear" about it before I'd "see" it. I guess it's just a matter of personal preference plus the fact that if a system happens to pick up something nasty . . I want to know if it's accessing the Internet on its own.
