Explorer.exe and I/O Other - waaaay high

XP Pro, SP 2. All windows updates, behind a firewall, domain member.

Domain Controller is OFF. other domain members off.


I watch 4k blocks every second go to "I/O other" in task manager from
Explorer.exe.

unplug network cable and rate slowed to acceptable.

have been using myspace/photobucket a lot.

Cannot find cause with spybot 1.5 or ad-aware or Mcafee Stinger.

I feel extra I/O is much more than system maintence overhead.


have about 12 threads on explorer.. how can I detect/clean up the problem?

explorer never used to do this- have been watching it and something happened
since myspace.


Thanks for all the great expertise in advance
