How keep internet connection when switching users on one PC?

Is there any way to configure Windows VISTA to NOT disconnect a dial-up
internet connection when switching user accounts? If I'm online, for
example, and allow another household user to log into their account (I'm not
logging off), the internet connection is closed. That person then has to
redial/reconnect. Highly annoying. Can ICS be used to fix this, even though
this is not a network, just one PC with multiple users?
