My net connection is a HP pavillion p3 700 running win98 over SBC DSL
I have been getting some erratic internet behavior so I ran the latest version of ad aware and installed zone alarm to take a look at whats hitting me.
In two days I have had 2400+ outbound hits from “one touch multimedia keyboard”
Figuring the keyboard had no business connecting to the net by itself I blocked it when I was prompted.
There is a special keyboard driver that is included in the install that supports volume controls and it does have an “internet” and “search” button but these should not come as firewall requests from the keyboard but through IE IIRC.
Anyone have any ideas what this phenomenon is? Can it be disabled? With that much port activity I’m sure its affecting my performance.
