My World Community Grid Software won't autodial with Windows 2000/XP.
Autodial does not work properly with any application outside of IE unless a service called "Remote Access Auto Connection Manager" running. By default this service is set to ""manual start"" and unless you change it to ""automatic start"" at boot or start it manually, autodial for other applications will not work. To check or change the setting for this service, select "Start", select "Settings", and then click ""Control Panel."" Double click "Administrative Tools" and then click "Computer Management." In the computer management console expand the "services and applications" section, click on "Services." In the services detail pane scroll down in the list till you get to "Remote Access Auto Connection Manager," double click on it. Change the startup type to "Automatic" if you want the service to start when you start your computer. Save your changes and exit. Now World Community Grid should auto dial when it needs a connection. You can find info about these steps if you press F1 with the desktop active. Then type "autodial, configuring" and select the topic.
