Can you trace the connections? i.e. What happens when you sniff the traffic? Or better yet, have you physically gone to the workstation? If so, try downloading the free version of PestPatrol, and run a scan on it.

Hi list,
i've one machine running Xp home inside local network. I noticed recently, using ntop, that every day it's performing a download of almost 40 Mbytes .
We have Symantec Norton installed on it, but the live update is scheduled on a weekly base .
What is causing that ?

Thanks in advance .
