I have recently reinstalled Windows XP Pro (SP1) and have the following
problem:
Just after logging in, explorer.exe starts to connect to various IP (they
seem to be random) at port 445(microsoft-ds). As you can imagine, system's
performance goes way down.
My temporary solution for this is blocking all outgoing traffic for
explorer.exe and TCP port 445, and manually restarting explorer.exe proccess,
after which the problem is gone.
My system has all updates except SP2. Also, my computer is not a domain
member although there is one in my network.
Any ideas what might be wrong?
