I have a HDAUDIO Soft Data Fax Modem with SmartCP (COM3) to connect to a dial-up connection for my kids to use. My kids need to be able to use my computer, but I only want them to use the dial-up connection when I enter the password and monitor their use. I cannot get the connection to require a password.

When I set up the connection, I did not enter a username or password, just the phone #. But somehow it knows my computer on the network and logs on without any more info. Then I have tried deleting the number in the properties dialog so I have to reenter #.

I don't have to fill in the password box-or even my username, it connects without putting anything in. I do not have the "Save this username and password" box checked.

In the properties window, I have checked the "prompt for name and password" option; under Security I have "Typical - Require secured password" and I have under Sharing, no options chosen to share anything.

Any ideas? Is this the SmartCard or network?
