I decided to bring up this issue here after reading <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=1052">this thread (the end of second post)</a>:

Could you please make "Disable BOINC Network Access" option persistent across restarts for people like me who are unfortunately still stuck with dial-up Internet in this era of broadband access? I know you have much more important priorities, but it shouldn't be too much of a work as stated in the above thread.

Best regards,

You wouldn't think it would take much, but this bug has been around since beta. The dev team has shown time and time again that they have very little regard for us dial up users.

Hopefully the new cross platform GUI will have this fixed when it is released.
