Auto connect to internet before Logon to the system

Xref: kermit microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web:181382

Hi everyone, I would like to know if it is possible to let WindowsXP's PPP connection automatically connect to the Internet before any user has Logged-on to the system.
In another words, to have Internet connection even at the Welcome Screen.

I am able to let the Internet connection work after one of the user has Logged-on to the system by putting the short-cut to the Startup folder and supressed any username/password prompt.
However, I would like the connection to act like a system service.

Thank you for your help!
