Panther? Connection to the net is dial-up? Or DSL/Cable?

Sounds like something on your system is set to auto-connect to the 
net to get something done, and tries to fulfill this at start-up. 
(This is commonly the clock, set to sync with a world time clock.) Or 
there could be something in your Start-up Items that needs a net 
connection.

Saying how to change this auto-connect will be easier after I hear 
what your net connection is.

I'm not aware of a way to do this. I have my mail app in my Start-up 
Items, so it launches at start-up.
