Hi,

One possible cause may be that your computer may be checking for
scheduled tasks to be run on the network. Usually you don't have any,
but the network connection checks anyway, if the Registry key
indicated below exists.

Open the Registry Editor (Start => Run and type in regedit)

Navigate to this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
\RemoteComputer\NameSpace\

Check if this sub-key exists, with a String Value of 'scheduled tasks'
{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}

If it exists, Export the key first for safety, and then Delete it
(that's the {D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF} key ONLY.

Restart the computer.
