I use VPN to work on my client’s computers that are 300 miles away. Sometimes I have to connect many times during the day. Whenever I connect VPN (which means I am working), I automatically get signed into WIndows MEssenger – which gives people the signal that I am available to chat – which I am not. I have never heard of a solution to this problem. Is this supposed to be a feature? If so, I’m not a big fan.
