A couple of XP questions

[Sysman]

With the offer of a free nosh up this weekend, I'm hoping to solve a little problem.

With an ISDN connection, starting Outlook brings up the dialling dialog fine, but MSIE doesn't. Instead IE sullenly claims it can't see the outside world and goes into offline mode. Is there a separate setting in IE to persuade it to call the dial up proggy?

While I'm here, does XP support bootp? If so, is there a bootp DOS utility or is it buried somewhere in the GUI?

I think Tools | Options | Connections will allow you to always dial a connection (from the menubar).

Sorry, should have said. IE 6.
