I had the same problem after installing McAfee VirusScan and Firewall 2004. It seems that it is trying to connect to the internet for updates, but can't since I have not allowed for automatic connections. By disabling the software while OFFLINE only, the problem seems to have stopped. Check your utility tray for programs that can do that. Right click on them, select the specific program, look for disable, click. Remember to enable them the same way when you need them to work.
