On a Compaq Presario laptop with a Wireless network card running Windows XP
Service Pack 2:
The broadband connection refreshes every 25 seconds effectively
disconnecting the user. I have isolated the problem to ipconfig.exe that
shows up in the processes window of the Task Manager at exactly the same
time, then disappears. When I highlight and try to end the process through
task manager I'm unable to do it. First I get a awarning and then and
"Access denied" message.
There is internet security running on the machine (Norton) and I've run the
usual scans with Spybot and Ad-Aware etc., plus posted a Hijackthis log that
has also been found clean. I don't know what's running this application in
the background but if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it.
Thank you
Carrie
