SYMPTOMS

If you are connected to a Windows 98-based computer using Dial-Up Networking and you have only the IPX/SPX-compatible network protocol installed, you do not receive any notification when the connection is dropped. You may not realize the connection has been dropped until you try to gain access to a shared resource on the other computer.
