Dialup problems

Hi All, this is possibly crossposted on NG's so apologies in advance.

I have a friend that is on dialup that has visited a website which has caused his dialup connection to become corrupt. The dialup connection instead of calling his ISP is calling a 0011 IDD number, like a wardialer from what he has described. He has tried deleting all dialup connections and creating fresh ones however this still occurs. Anyone know of a way to stop the pc behaving this way. Does he need to edit the registry or something ? Any help would be appreciated. The OS is windows 98

Thanks in Advance

He's been hacked. While it might be possible to remove it, it's better to reinstall the OS, as you don't know how much damage it caused.
