It would dial in immediately after booting up...just as soon as the desktop was ompleted, the dial tone kicked in..I stopped it but it continued trying about every 10 minutes or so...irregardless if any app was open or not..If I let it continue to dial in, it automatically started up my netscape.i was never able to determine if it checked in with the apple time server...everytime I checked that, it was showing the correct time.
