I am using WinXp home.

Whenever I connected to internet
even though I already disable the automatic update and not running any
software/internet explorer.
the connection icon (on the lower right corner)
always blinking showing there are data transfer activity.

Is this because of my pc infected with virus/spy/malicious/trojan
ware?

I already scan my pc with (1)spybots (2) Norton antivirus (3)
microsoft's malware scanner. but did not found any virus/spy/malicious/
trojan

Then run the facilities recommended by Shenan Stanley (in the post I made
