Thanks for the feedback Phoenix, Fritz and Roger.

My computer actually doesn't have integrated firewire
support (it came out right after I purchased my system)
and until yesterday I had never noticed this adapter. I
am frequently checking/configuring network settings, etc.
so I definitely would have recognized it if it was there
in the past. I think one of you may have hit it on the
head when suggesting that a recent Microsoft Update may
have installed the drivers. I ran the latest automatic
update yesterday and this was the same time that I first
noticed the device.

I will follow your suggestions and simply disable it.

Thanks.


I'd be surprised that an update would enable the Networking Adapter if your
motherboard doesn't have it. Are you absolutely sure that it's not an
on-board device?

There is an onboard device that uses an Intel Pro chipset
but it has always been recognized as an Intel Pro adapter
without adding a 1394 device/driver. All I can say is it
has never been there before (for 2 years since I
purchased the system) and it just appeared. Other than
adding a video capture board, the only recent change I
made was installing the latest automatic updates.

Let me know if you can think of anything else.

Thanks.

IEEE 1394 is your firewire card.

This recently appeared under network connections but I
cannot determine what program is using this. I attempted
to disable and uninstall the driver but XP loaded it
again as a new device. The digital signer listed for the
driver is "Microsoft Windows XP Publisher" but I can't
imagine what Publisher would need a connection for.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

XP has supported Tcp/Ip over 1394 since its initial
release,
and it configures 1394 devices with network connectoids
during install. If you have not tried tying to XPs
together
with a firewire you will be surprised at how simple and
useful it can be.
When not desired, just set the connectoid to disabled.
