XP continually sends to Internet

My PC continually pings (I am not using "ping" literally) the Internet. This happens about 100 times per minute. If I watch a Hulu video, I get constant interruptions. I have no programs running except those in the background. Avast is my anti-virus program. Zone Alarm Free is my firewall. XostSpySE is my main anti-spyware program. I also run Ad-Aware occasionally for spyware detection. I've run several on-line programs also, but found nothing. My pc seems clean. I can stop this annoyance by using my firewall and locking out the Internet. Need help on how to look for the program that is doing this. Thanks.
