One of my favourite time-savers is putting a Shortcut to my most frequently used Dial-Up Networking connections on the Start menu. It's a simple drag-and-drop affair in Windows 9x, but not in NT. Open Dial-Up Networking (Start-Programs-Accessories-Dial-Up Networking), choose the Phonebook entry to which you want to link, click More, and choose Create Shortcut to entry. In the next dialogue box, navigate to \Winnt\Profiles\username\Start Menu (where username is your log-in name), and click OK.
