XP Automatically Reconnecting Mapped Drives

[rajbrown]

Hi, I seem to have the opposite problem from most of the network drives
issues I've seen when trying to find a solution. I'm on XP Pro, SP2 -
at some point in time I've mapped my 5 or 6 spare network drives to
server shares, etc. but have made non-persistent connections to those
shares.

Now whenever I log in the drives are all reconnected automatically. If
I disconnect them, they will literally get remapped within a matter of
minutes without any help from me! Has anyone seen this sort of
behaviour before? I'm not running any processes which rely on or
attempt to connect to any of the shares in question so I'm a bit
stumped to say the least.

If there's any more info I can supply to help out then please let me
know!

Thanks
