This will work, but if you want to also use TCPIP, you'll have to look at your WINSOCK Dlls. Most likely an app (probably a browser) has installed a WINSOCK which starts dial-up when the DLL is loaded. PO7 is only loading the SQL*Net DLLs (if present) which load the TCPIP DLLs(if present), but it doesn't invoke anything.
