How keep internet connection when switching users?

Is there any way to configure Windows Vista to NOT disconnect a dial-up
internet connection when switching user accounts on one computer? When I'm
online, for example, and allow another household user to "switch users,"
Vista closes the internet connection...meaning that person has to redial to
reconnect. This happens even if I stay logged in when the switch is made.
Highly annoying. Can ICS be used for this, even though this is not a
network...just two people using one PC?
