About every 10 seconds, there is a message box says :

winupd32
windows socket error 11001 on API Async Lookup

I thought it was a virus and I've cleaned my PC with NAV2002 and the box still appears

What is the best solution?

-Thanks-

Maybe not a virus but possible. This error is Name lookup - Authoritative Answer: Host not found. Could be a program looking for a server which isnt there ne more. Find out what programs are running. Even try a port scanner to see wot ports are open on your computer. Seems like sumthings trying to connect to sumthing,

Ah, it's could be ICMP Syn Attack flooding to your puter or ports MAXed out, try reboot the puter to clear the ports.
