for one thing, you should have a good battery for the CMOS
have you check for spyware infection? from the sounds of it, you are getting some kinda interferance, most likely from spyware
also try this, delete the dial up account you are currently using on your computer and start a fresh one, since dial up only requires username and password

CMOS:A part of the motherboard that maintains system variables in static RAM. It also supplies a real-time clock that keeps track of the date, day and time. CMOS Setup is typically accessible by entering a specific sequence of keystrokes during the POST at system start-up

BIOS:The part of the operating system that provides the lowest level interface to peripheral devices. The BIOS is stored in the ROM on the computer's motherboard.
