hi,

everytime i go to the maxwell forum page i get a message that i requested info from (the next entry varies - this time it was www.imk.es) and i am askes about a dial up connection (luckily i am asked because i have to options setup - maybe people who don´t have two options are not asked at all and therefore don´t notice this!!!)

could someone from nextlimit please check this !

well, i just tested - it does not happen everytime.
today was just the third or fourth time over the last days - and i had the impression that it was everytime. (this was only once a day - maybe for one firefox session or IP adress dependent - i don´t know)

now closing firefox and even rebooting the system i could not get it working again.

anybody else with problems ?

no, no naughty sites ! :-)

and i have double virus checked my pc. no virus. i used avira antivir (not the freeware - so spyware is normally also found) for the scan.
today and yesterday i did not have any further issues.

and for all - it only happened when visiting the maxwell forum page. no problems anytime and anywhere else.

hmm.
it happened again.
and now i am able to reproduce it.

if i go to the gallery and look at this thread:
http://www.maxwellrender.com/forum/view ... sc&start=0
it starts trying to dial. it ends when i leave the maxwell forum.

here is the popup window for the dial up connection.
as i said this maybe only pops up because i have the choice between two connections - it might not show up if only one connection is available.

the site it tries to connect is always www.atlas3drenders.com from this link.
maybe the other one i found is somewhere else hidden in one certain thread.
don´t know - i am no expert with this stuff.

the connection attempts already stop when i leave the gallery. (now being in off topic has stopped them)
