Problems when I am offline - repetitive prompting to connect!

Please help me with this problem:

When I am offline, I keep getting a message saying:

Work Offline

No connection to the Internet is currently available.
To view Internet content that has been saved on you
computer, click Work Offline.

Click Try Again to attempt to connect.

It will only go away when I connect online.

Try this:

Open IE. Go to 'Tools' menu, then 'Internet Options'.
Now click on the 'Connections' tab.
Click in the button to enable 'Never Dial A Connection'
Click 'OK'

Don't worry, you'll still be able to connect with your usual dialler icon
when you want to go online, but IE shouldn't nag you anymore when you are
offline.

Hope it does the trick.

That is not so much an error message as an advisory, the pages you are
working on contain links to online sites that IE tries to access, you can
disable the dialup prompt in internet settings

Mozilla Firefox.

Menu: File
MenuItem: Work Offline

A checkbox will appear in front of the MenuItem and the fox will
no longer bug you. (the way it works for me at least.)
