| | Problems with Vista and internet connection Hi to all I heave problem with internet connection. If I leave PC untented for half an hour or more it tries to connect to internet and sometimes after i play games. I heave ADSL connection and my connection has limit on download. I heave set up in IE that connection is never used (so that IE cant make connection by default). But still i find that PC is connected to internet, Pulling ot cables and shutting down ADSL modem is out of question. |

Examining the firewall log showed automatic-update was connecting a lot, but there's something else the firewall is not picking up. Already checked for malware using three utilities. Vista has a mind of its own...grrrrr |

| | Re: Problems with Vista and internet connection i heve turned off automatic update. this was my first assumption. but as it seams this is not the source of the problem. did too a malware check with S&D but came with nothing. This is getting on my nerves i i might switch back to XP.

| | Re: Problems with Vista and internet connection im more interested in some tool that will give me info on program that is trying to establish connection. i do not want to shut down all software and then turn on one by on to find which one is establishing connection. this will take more time than i heave not to mention that on vista i don't know what is what (on XP im more familiar with processes).
