You can stop it from doing that if you can find what program is trying to connect to the net. For me it was fax manager. There was a fax that never got sent and every 5-10 minutes it would try to connect to the net to send it.
 
Also when it pops up, there is a button at the bottom that says option, advanced, or properties can't recall exactly. Click that then in the pop up window click disable autodial.

i think Paul Richardson mentioned to me that he would make sure it was fixed for RTM. So I know there is a bug in the auto dialing system, but it'll be fixed
