Product Description:

End Hanging Disconnect is a Mac OS X Applescript application that will force-quit the infamous "endless disconnect" that can sometimes occur on dialup Internet connections. Simply run the application and enter your (admin) password. You may then reconnect to the Internet without having to restart the computer.

What's new in this version:

This version repeats the killall command 5 times (with 5 second delay in between tries), since the first try frequently does not end the pppd processes. Some interface changes: easier to read description; will no longer report errors on subsequent tries if application has already successfully done its job.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

Mac OS X 10.3
Mac OS X 10.2

Additional Requirements:

Mac OS X 10.2 or higher (10.1 may work, but is untested)

I don't know what causes the problem which this script solves -- maybe in my case a dodgy ISDN connection on the end of a long phone line? -- but I need to use it often, and it works every time (with only one password request). It has a significantly positive impact on my life. Thank you!

I like this script; however, I have to enter my admin password twice before the script will work. The first time, it does nothing, then on the second try, it finally does what it's supposed to do and quickly. I like it, but I don't like having to enter the same information twice to do one very simple job. Can this be fixed so that it works on the very first try?

Dont use IC much in Panther, but it has happened to me a couple times-i thought it was just some memory glitch.
