I have a problem with my Network Connections window popping up automatically. The text says one of two things usually “You (or a program) have requested information from eyezon.zapto.com. Which connection do you want to use?”

Sometimes it says the same thing but other URLs are in there instead such as 87dj3ww783.dyndns.org.

How can I stop this? I have scanned the whole system with an updated AVG Antivirus program and I have also updated and run Ad-aware 6.0 and also Spybot Search and Destroy.

I am on a dial-up and when I log on and then look at my data transfer data (by clicking on the little “computer-to-computer icon) I see that a lot of data is being sent and received by my computer even when I have NO applications or browsers running.

I am using Windows XP Pro Service Pack 1.
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ 1.84 GHZ 1.00 GB of RAM

Any help with this problem is greatly appreciated.
