I am running Win98SE and Explorer very slowly loads the home page on start-up. I noticed that there was a mass of data being uploaded. 160Kb by the time I checked the connection status and hit disconnect. I have been through your FAQ page a while ago and already had Adaware, AVG, TDS-3, and Spybot installed. All are coming up clean. If I run Ethereal v0.10.10 it stops the upload as soon as the capture window opens. Had hoped to find an IP address where the data was going.

I've tried running HiJackThis and Process Explorer during the upload and find nothing unusual.

While this problem leaves me wondering what data has been copied to where, I can at least stop it with Ethereal. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Alan
