Okay, I know what it is and why it's there. But why does it sometimes just connect to internet and use all the bandwidth? I've been having trouble seeing what's hidden behind the file to see what's doing it. (I know it's doing it because of zonealarm.) And it doesn't always do this, and it not allowing it Inet access doesn't help - IE won't run and I understand why.

Next time it tries to connect, open a command prompt and type, "netstat" to see what connections are trying to be established. While you're at it, you might want to check which ports are open via "netstat -a"

Hope that helps.
