What to do When the Dial-up Control Pop-up Appears

When the Dial-up Control is installed, it may prompt you when you try to open a dial-up connection for the first time.

Dial-up Control allows you to verify the phone number before a dial-up connection is opened. It can be used to control that any malicious dialers cannot open a dial-up connection without you knowing it.

Example: Dialing your ISP’s number for the first time after installation
  1. Open a dial-up connection to your Internet Service Provider’s number.
  2. The Dial-up Control pop-up appears, asking you whether the application is allowed to create a dial-up connection to the number displayed in the window.
  3. Check carefully to make sure that the displayed number is correct. Then select Do not show this dialog again for this number, and click Allow. The connection is allowed and the number is added to the list of allowed numbers.
    If you want to turn off Dial-up Control, go to the Internet Shield page and click Disable Dial-up Control.
