I.E. log in problem

when i turn on my computer and the basic window comes up with all my icons and i click on the Internet explorer Icon the window opens with my browser,but not the window for my dial-up connection so i can click to get on the net.
The dial-up connection icon on the basic widow works just fine and i can get on the net as i used to do by clicking in the I.E. icon.
I was wondering if i should just unistall I.E. in my add/remove program account and reinstall. Should i "restore" the system to some previos time?
using windows xp

Thanks

In IE goto TOOLS/CONNECTIONS.You should the option to 'dial whenever a network connection is not present' and 'Always dial my default connection'.
