As I understand it, WLM takes its internet connection settings from Internet Explorer so it would not be possible to use it with IE set to "Work Offline"

Out of interest, why do you want IE to be set to "Work Offline" when you will be connected to the internet anyway?

It does require Internet Explorer I'm afraid, as do many other Windows applications.
