Details

I use quick launch and work at home using a dial up connection via ISDN. When opening mail or browser by right clicking on the quick launch icon Mozilla always starts in online mode. As a consequence 1.1beta now detects that a dial up connection should be established and a dialog from W2000 appears asking me to establish that connection. I need to cancel that dialog and click OK twice on warnings from Mozilla that my mail server cannot be found and that some website cannot be found before I can choose to work offline. Adding the possibility to remember the previous state Mozilla was in when closing mailer and/or browser and/or introducing an extra dialog window asking me to work online or offline when no network connection can be found should make all this must more userfriendly.
Mozilla should just remember the previous state. --> Offline
