Configuring
your computer to use the default Internet connection can
be very useful. Whenever a program is launched and requires
to connect to the Internet then your default connection
will come in action. Sometimes, people forget to specify
there default connection, the result of this is that a
program such as Outlook Express does not ask the user
whether he would like to connect or work offline. Other
times the program will just give all kind of error messages
about the pop server not responding and so on...
