Default "work offline" message

I had a cable modem hookup on my computer for internet service. I have since
disconnected the computer from the internet. However, every few seconds I'm
still getting a dialogue box asking me if I want to connect or work offline.
Even after I click "work offline", it pops up again every few seconds.

It sounds like you are running a program in the background that is
periodically checking for Internet access and that's when you get the
message.

Try clean boot troubleshooting to determine what this is and then either
configure that program to work off line or not load at Startup or uninstall
it.
