Whenever I shut down my sytem it looses the the settings needed to get online

Whenever I shut down my sytem it looses the the settings needed to get online. The cable company (Comcast) provides softeware that determines whatever settings are lost and restores them. The problem is I have to run this software to restore system settings every time I boot up. Mostly the settings it looses are directly related to getting online. At least once howerver it said there were changes to Outlook Express and retored those as well.

Thanks

Rick
