Netstat shows nearly constant churning of BW usage
That may be the result of a couple of 'background' features 8 has that 7 didn't.
I had to turn off the Resident Shield and LinkScanner components, as they made my system too sluggish. And I have a 3.02ghz with 1.5gb RAM.

I had to turn off the Resident Shield and LinkScanner components, I just unchecked Linkscanner and it's still going through BW. I'll uncheck Resident Shield now, thanks.

Both are unchecked and it’s still running slow and my netstat is still blinking. Now on my AVG I see the red shield with an ‘x’ on it, indicating a security alert.

Funny how Windows needs so much HP.
I’m browsing right now on a Pentium II 400 Mhz laptop with 256 MB (Linux). No virus scanner hassles, either.
