Dear Sirs and Mesdames,
 
I hope you could help me. Yesterday I installed etheral to oberseve my Cable-Modem-Internet connection. Why? Since a cuple of weeks I can see flashing lights on my modem - indicating network traffic - but no program ist open nor the IE is running. My provider shows me 1 GB of upload. Hmm. Etheral showed me, that when all known web-applications on my PC are closed, 100 % of entwork traffic come from using the ARP-Protokol, broadcasting somthing like "who is" or "hihi..."? How can I identify the source of the traffic and how can I stop it? 
It would be great to hear from you.
 
Many thanks
