Would you be kind to post your solution here. Maybe there are others who need your solution.

it is a service hiding under system32 and it only will triggle once u go online if u are not ONLINE <---- join public , it's like normal if u stay in private.

identify the particural service and delete it. (unpack32.exe).

So u need to apply the microsoft recemmemed tweak as fdv posted ( there is some more ) i can found it so i think there won't be a problem for u all

Hope this help

Best Regards to u all
