If you are on broadband, bin the usb adsl modem and buy a router as suggested.

I just bought the netgear dg834g router for my father in law. £83 + £10 delivery + vat from pcworld. has firewall, 802.11g .wireless, adsl modem supports vpn, etc.

kerio isnt as easy to set up as zonealarm, im only on isdn but I use an old router with nat and set to deny ALL incoming connections.

One thing I have found useful in past is filemon, a freeware file activity monitor you should be able to download from net.

Just opening one app gives you an enormous log file but with patience you should be able to track down offending file.

Aye Xog, I'm a devotee of the www.sysinternals.com stuff. NTfilemon rocks, saved my butt a few times.
