| Microsoft Internet Explorer includes an Auto Disconnect feature. Using this feature will shut down your Internet connection and hang up the phone line for those times when someone has forgotten to disconnect from the Internet or walked away from the computer for an extended period. YKC encourages all users to take advantage of this handy feature. |
