I opened up the apps list in sygate and indeed there was a "kernel and
system" with a "?". I "X"-ed it out, but that did not solve the
problem.

I opened up control panel and under networks I found 2 listings:
1394 connection and local area connection. I disabled the latter, but
when I did that I could not connect to the internet. So I re-enabled
it.

The problems still remain.
