Hi Tony,

Thanks for that, I found TCPView, installed it and it reports
activity as follows:

Process - svchost.exe:944
Protocol - TCP
Local Address - crystal.home 2xxx. (xxx is continuously changing)
Remote Address - voyager.home:2800
State - Established

Note: Crystal is my computer and Voyager is the modem.

Right clicking on the process and selecting "End Process" stops the
activity; connection with the net is still available - Success! But
rebooting brings it back to life again. :-(

Svchost.exe is also shown with other processes e.g.
Svchost.exe:1016, 1120, 2112 which don't cause activity. Is it
possible to disable svchost.exe:944 permanently? I presume it's
there for a reason; if disabled, would it hurt?

Thanks again to Tony and Chip
