I have a Lucent 56k win-modem & I’ve been noticing lately the little modem in the system
tray keeps coming on every 5 to 10 seconds. I have already run a virus checker & Spy-bot to
check for spy-ware, but it keeps doing it. This happens on every site I go to even Google,
I don’t remember it doing this before. Other then that little annoyance the modem works great.
Anyone know if this is normal & I may have just never noticed it?
It's probably just the "hearbeat" that keeps the connection alive. ISP's will usually kill the connection if they don't get a return pulse from the modem from time to time.
do u mean the little double computer screen icon in the systray? if so, then all that means is that data is being transferred. like peter said, perfectly normal
