Thanks for your help folks. I have tracked the problem to having downloaded some software (by mistake!) called "Trailer Room", which requires permanent connection to the internet. I have uninstalled it and everything is now back to normal. Thanks again , David

You might want to run Hijack This and let one of the experts reveiw the log file, just to make sure that software didn't leave any nasties behind when you uninstalled it.  ;)

 

Go to the HJT forum and click the red link at top of the page. Read all the FAQs and then post your log file there for expert review.
