I recently installed WindowsXP Pro w/SP 1a. I have a LAN,
with 2 PCs connected in my home office. Both have dial-up
internet connections of their own. Here's the problem: At
random times, but every day, the XP machine boots while
unattended. I come home from work, and there it sits
running, not connected to the internet. Has me a little
worried that someone may be accessing it remotely. Any
ideas what program or problem could be causing this.
Thanks
