Strange new popup

My eCab seems to be running fine, but I today I clicked on the \"Communications\" link on the top menu and checked to see if my software needed updating. I got the attached popup (see jpg). I tried again and it checked the update which was OK. I tried it again and repeatedly got the popup. I've never had this before. Haven't changed anything related to my internet connections but did add a new, really sweet LCD monitor yesterday with no other changes inside or to the box.
Wierd.

regards,

Peter,

Do you have dial-up?

If you have DSL or Cable then,

go to START>CONTROL PANEL>INTERNET OPTIONS>CONNECTIONS, then select LAN settings at the bottom right of the dialog, Then see if there is a check beside the \"Automaticlly Detect Settings. If not check the box and click OK. This should do it.

If this doesn't help there could be a problem with the internet connection itself or it has been blocked by a spyware program.

Michael,
It did indeed fix the problem. I have no idea why this got unchecked. Another unsolved mystery in the adventures of software.
many thanks,
