Hey Guys
I just recently upgraded to to xp pro. I spend alot of time on Dark age of Camelot (much more than is healthy..hehe) And i found with XP i was getting a major lag hit.
After reinstalling Zonealarm, which i hadnt done yet after the upgrade cause i wanted to play, I discovered these 2 Generic host Processes accessing the net(1 is just listening to a port150 i think), i believ they are in task manager as svchost.
So i set zonealarm loock and allowed the DAoC progs to pass the lock, and boom, no lag, no probs. Yet windows IE will not run if i do not allow these access.
Neither of these were in 98, so
1. Can they be disabled?
2. Are they really required in XP, Why?
3. What the hell are they REALY doing?
Hope someone here has some answers, cause no 1 else seems to know anything.
Tx guys
i LIKED windows 3.xx (cause i didnt HAVE to use it)
