3. Manual Configuration
The following configurations should have been made on the appropriate
screens that appeared during the download/install of ICW. However,
with AOL and CompuServe, and possibly some other ISPs, it may be
necessary to manually do this configuration. Unless the automatic
configuration fails, this entire chapter may be skipped, but you may find
it useful should you later want to change your configuration.
3.1 Configuring Your PC for ICW
This section provides instructions for configuring your PC for ICW,
running ICW, and configuring ICW for your specific telecommunication
needs. (For AOL and CompuServe users, refer to Section 3.1.2).
3.1.1 Formatting the *95, Provisioning Prefix for Dial-Up Networking
Note: This section does not apply to AOL and CompuServe customers.
Make sure that you have placed the necessary *95, provisioning prefix in
your dial-up to your ISP. You do this on your Windows Dial-Up
Networking window. Access this window by first selecting, on your
desktop, the computer (My Computer) icon. Next, click Dial-Up
Networking. The window shown on the next page appears.

In this example, the configuration is set for a computer that does not have
Call Waiting. In the Telephone number: field, simply insert *95, and
your telephone number (or *70,*95, if you also have Call Waiting). Do
NOT use the Area code: field (shown grayed out in the example) and Do
NOT click the Use area code and Dialing Properties box. Make sure
that your location shows the telephone number for your ICW service, and
then close the window.
It is unnecessary to configure your ISP’s dial-up networking window.

4. Edit the number shown in the Edit number here: field by typing in
the *95, or *70, 95, prefix in front of the number (be careful not to
alter the dial-up number itself). In the example shown on the
previous page, the number in the Edit number here: field would be
(after editing it) *95,404-681-0718. Do not make any changes to the
information shown in the Name: field.
5. Select OK; this ends the configuration instructions for AOL and
CompuServe.
3.1.3 Activating or Deactivating Call Waiting
If you have call waiting, it must be temporarily deactivated prior to your
Internet session by placing *70, ahead of the *95, prefix. For example, if
your dial-up access to your ISP is (404) 555-1234, the number should be
modified to be *95,4045551234. If you have call waiting, the number
for the dial-up would be *70,*95,4045551234. The characters *70,
MUST precede the *95, prefix if you have call waiting. Be sure to
insert a comma following *70 and *95.
Nothing else is required to configure your computer to use the ICW
service. If you not already created a forwarding list, however, you must
do this before you will be able to forward any calls.
When the ICW program is activated, an ICW startup screen appears,
similar to the one shown on page 2-3.
3.2 Configuring ICW for Your PC
Several simple configuration tasks are necessary to set up ICW for your
personal telecommunication needs. These steps are covered in the
following sections.

properly configured ICW. However, to subsequently change any of
these functions, the following sections and procedures must be followed.
3.2.1 Voice Mail and Anonymous Call Rejection
