Default Off topic. Windows XP home: small problem

Hello all.

I went to a Windows XP news group with my problem, but got no answers. Not
one. This group has some nasty trolls, who are very distracting and
disrupting in that news group.
Anyway, I hope that someone here can help.
Windows XP is able to ask you, when you have finished a task, "if you want
to turn the modem off" (or words to that effect), or continue. As I'm
absent-minded, I found this very useful. Now, I find that I'm forgetting to
turn the modem off occasionally; which is annoying and is costing me money.
This reminder has been available on and off, but I have no idea how to
install it (make it available) on a permanent basis.
Any ideas? I really miss it.

Thanks in advance.

Sylvain.
