However, the data connection automatically turns on sometimes, and the SelfServe program has shown me that I have used some data already. I just want to pay for my phone services (minutes, texts, etc), and no additional charges. I've been using the internet browsers, the mail function, and the weather function.

My main question is, does anyone know how I can disable the data connection alltogether in order to avoid any additional charges?

And I'd also like to know which functions on the phone will result in the additional charges.

Thanks.

Back up the settings beforehand in case you need to go back!

This first part disables the cellular data connection
Click on start>settings>connections>connections>manage existing connections>right click (hold down) on the connection in that list and choose delete.

This funnels data traffic through the wifi
Then click OK to go back to the connections window. Click the advanced tab at the bottom. Click the SELECT NETWORKS button. Change all of these drop down boxes to "MY WORK NETWORK"
