A PC running XP SP2 on a business network is creating an unwanted
Internet/LAN connection. The connection runs at 10Mbps and appears in the
tray in addition to the normal LAN connection which runs at 100Mbps. The
unwanted connection is always labeled "fgfgndC". Its properties are that of
an Internet Shared Connection to another PC. We do not use this feature on
our network.
If we disable the connection it re-enables after a few seconds. When
running, both connections appear to be sending/receiving data continuously.
This all occurs even if nothing else is connected to the network except the
router and cable modem.
We have run MRT, AdAware, and Norton IS but nothing unusual (such as a virus
or hijack) was found.
Thanks.
