That program didn't help. The netstat portion of it produced the same
results as the regular "netstat -o" command, although in a decidedly
easier-to-use format. I figured out what the problem was though. I
had installed a trial version of MS SQL Server from my MCSD kit and
apparently, the MSSQLSERVER service was looking for something or
another. As long as I keep the service stopped (I set it to manual
start), there are no problems with my network connection.
Is there some setting I need to change in MS SQL Server to fix this so
that I can have the SQL Service running and still be able to use my
computer? I'm unfamiliar with MS SQL Server in an environment as
small as mine. BTW Once the service starts spamming packets, it
cannot be stopped or restarted.
Thanks,
Mike
