Hi,<br />
<br />
I noticed the other day at a clients that the little network icon in the bottom right of the taskbar was always lit. Upon inspecition it showed constant traffic in and out.<br />
<br />
A person on EE suggested that I use traffic shaper XP to see the details. So I installed it and it does show unusual traffic. Please see the screenshot below. The traffic is always 300+ K and goes constantly to the file/print server. Offline files on the desktop is not configured, and a virus scan and anti-malware scan shows clean. The user has noticed some performance slow downs.<br />
<br />
Any help on what is it, or how to stop it would be greatly appreciated.<br />

Hi,

I noticed the other day at a clients that the little network icon in the bottom right of the taskbar was always lit. Upon inspecition it showed constant traffic in and out.

A person on EE suggested that I use traffic shaper XP to see the details. So I installed it and it does show unusual traffic. Please see the screenshot below. The traffic is always 300+ K and goes constantly to the file/print server. Offline files on the desktop is not configured, and a virus scan and anti-malware scan shows clean.

Un-Explained Network Traffic From XP Client to 2K3 Server

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Network analysis is the process of identifying and remediating the processes and systems within a network, including performance, connectivity and security. The process is performed through the use of tools developed for monitoring and analyzing network activity. Network problems that involve finding an optimal way of doing something are studied under the name combinatorial optimization. Examples include network flow, shortest path problem, transport problem, transshipment problem, location problem, matching problem, assignment problem, packing problem, routing problem, Critical Path Analysis and PERT (Program Evaluation & Review Technique).

Network Analysis

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
