    I am running End Point Protection at home on a Vista Laptop.  In the Network Protection Log I am seeing ougoing traffic that is being blocked.  I have run many different malware types of programs such as CCleaner and Analyze This but have not been able to identify the offending program.

    Here are a couple of lines from the traffic log

    1 2/26/2011 12:27:59 PM Blocked 10 Unknown None 0.0.0.0 33-33-00-01-00-02 0 0.0.0.0 00-1A-92-53-9C-B3 0  Computer namexxxx workgroup xxxx Default 1 2/26/2011 12:26:58 PM 2/26/2011 12:26:58 PM Block_all 
    2  2/26/2011 12:28:04 PM Blocked 10 Unknown None 0.0.0.0 33-33-00-01-00-02 0 0.0.0.0 00-1A-92-53-9C-B3 0  Computer namexxxx workgroup xxxx Default 1 2/26/2011 12:27:03 PM 2/26/2011 12:26:58 PM Block_all 
     

    The Application slot is blank.

    This is happening at regular intervals and hundreds of times a day

    Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this and how to stop it or is is something that is normal and needs to be unblocked to continue.  That fact that no application is listed as generating this makes me think this is bad.

    This user saw the same thing, it turned out to be his cable modem.
