Is this possible?

I have two accounts, one for me (admin) one for my other half (ltd). When
switching from one to the other I would like to know if it is possible to do
this with out losing my broadband connection (BT Broadband ADSL on usb
speedtouch), so this connection can be used by both users without 'dialling
up' again

TIA

Matt,

For RAS connections:

Dial-up connections might terminate while switching users. To prevent =
that, download:
