Some weeks back I let Windows Update put SP2 on my wife's machine.
Since that time, her machine randomly connects to the Internet when
unattended. She has an external modem, and it's obvious from the
modem indicator lights when it's connected. Each time I've caught it
in this condition, nothing was being transmitted/received. Of course,
who knows what happened before I noticed it, and who knows how many
times it has connected but then the connection has been closed by our
ISP for inactivity.
I have turned off every automatic update or connection option I can
find, and I have turned off Windows Auto Update.
Programs > Control Panel > Scheduled task shows nothing scheduled.
The connection is firewalled and always has been. My anti-virus is up
todate, and multiple full system scans over the past few weeks have
turned up nothing.
So, my question is, how can I get a log of every Internet connection
established and the name of the program that did it. If this isn't
available in WinXP, does anyone know of a software package that would
provide this service?
Any information or thoughts anyone can provide will be much
appreciated.
