>> I am using 10.4.11.  I am still using dial up and went to change to
some new telephone numbers.  I went to system preferences network and a
sign pops up that says "Your settings  have been changed by another
application".  When I click on the OK button it goes away momentarily but
comes right back.  I can't do anything else in the network and I have to
force quit in order to close system preferences.  Does anyone have
suggestions?
