Automatic dialling in Firefox

Since installing Firefox, after starting up my pc and connecting to the net, it always asks for confirmation that I wish to dial and connect. My old IE connection dialog had a checkbox that told it to connect automatically. Does anyone happen to know if there is a way of telling firefox to dial automatically when connecting?

Cheers for any help

Oops, on restarting and testing it looks like it still needs to be told to dial, and an additional dialogue asking me to select my connection method also appears. I'll reverse the procedure and check it out further.
Cheers for now

Did you have these 3 services set to start automatically if your using XP?
* Remote Access Connection Manager
