    Internet closing!! Help.

    Whenever my mate tries to use Windows media player to get track info for a cd it shuts his internet connection down straight away!! Why is this? He is on dial up.

    umm dunno never use WM for getting track info.. doubt its a problem with windows xp serial issues.. maybe WM can disconnect when it finds track info?

    why not just type the track listing into the recording screen

    Maybe WMP is trying to start a connection specified in it or IE, so it hangs up the phone to connect to the dial up number specified in settings
    Sorry if thats confusing but just a thought.. could be completely wrong
