Do you happen to have a Creative Labs sound card, I read a few reports of a background program trying to establish a connection. It is recommended to be disabled.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Problem seems to be solved at a forum below...

If not then it's a good place to start.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

It does sound like a memory problem. What I would've done just for some sense of security would have been to update the drivers on my network card. Afterwards if the problem does continue then run memtest86+. You can put it on a flashdisk or floppy and boot it from there. I don't know how many hours equals a successful test but I left mine overnight for a good 10 hours.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I had a few issues with my OCZ Platinum 2X1GB sticks and no errors were found until the 6th hour of running the test. Turned out to be a bad batch and RMA'ed it to newegg in exchange for a more friendly batch of Corsair XMS memory.
