Why dialup networking invoked when database is opened?

Answer:

Read about "Appearance of Internet Connection Dialog Box at Startup of Windows 95/98" in SQL Server Books Online (for both SQL Server 7.0/2000).

It's therefrom:

This behavior can be disabled by setting the registry key
EnableRemoteConnect to N. 

To do this, create a text file named DisbleAutoConnect.reg
with the following three lines: 

REGEDIT4 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\OLE] 
"EnableRemoteConnect"="N"
