Upon reviewing the Event Viewer on my secondary rig, I have discovered several entries that show up at random intervals. My main rig does not have any of these listed, and I am using a D-Link 802.11b WiFi router w/ the WiFi disabled. Both pc's connect to the router with cat5 cables. All windows updates have been applied.

Information event ID 20158
Source: RemoteAccess
Description: "The user User Name successfully established
a connection to The Internet(2) using device IRDA10-1."

Information event ID 20159
Source: Remote Access
Descrption: "The connection to
the Internet(2) made by user User Name using device
IRDA10-1 was disconnected."

I do not have an Infared device(s) on my computer, and remote access is disable in the system properties. I've also ran a NAV 2003 &amp; Trend Micro online scan that comes up clean. I've done a google search and see that other people have this problem, but I have not seen a detailed reason or solution. Any ideas?
