I have a Windows 2000 machine which kept logging the following informational events in the System log:
Event 1: The user User Name successfully established a connection to The Internet (2) using the device IRDA7-1.
Event 2: The connection to The Internet (2) made by user using device IRDA7-1 was disconnected.
What is this “The Internet (2)” connection? and what is device “IRDA7-1”? I looked all over my system and could not find either this connection nor this device (looked in Network & dial-up connections, Device Manager, etc.). Could this be a component with AOL 9.0 (the user is running AOL 9.0) or could it be related to Apple’s Ipod service (which installs and is enabled by default with installation of Itunes)?
Well, I disabled the Ipod service and the log events above did not come back, yet.
Can someone chime in on this? I’ve never seen an IRDA7-1 device nor a “The Internet” connection before.
