    Help please! Sudden dialup nightmare....

    Hi all,

    right now it feels like my early days of internet...using 33.3 k dialup... everyhing is soooo slow...this is because i'm using 56 k modem dialup connection (still....) and all of the sudden Microsoft, Symantec or someone else has decided to upload som king-size stuff to my computer and killing the bearable bandwith i had.... I DONT know what it is or from whom it comes...it just start uploading as soon as i have connected.
    Using TCPView show two "established" connections..one is ccproxy.exe (symantec i believe) and one is svhost.exe. Some one of these two is the cause.
    I have had the computer on for a while and the upload counts 19 mb and still counting...
    What update could be this big ? Messenger? IE7 or what ?
    Please advise.

    Best regards/ Nick
