Navian Call Home

[Bob Crockett <bcrocket () texas net>]

Well, folks, here's another question which is way low 
tech to y'all, but baffles the heck out of me.

I had been noticing some "odd" behavior on my dial-up 
connection, and then while connecting a network card I 
noticed a dial up connection that I did not set up.  It 
has an 877 (toll free) number, and is labeled "Navian".

I found this connection last night, and deleted it.  I 
also googled Naviant and found out that they're a 
massive direct marketing company.  Apparently they must 
_REALLY_ value my privacy (or what they might find out 
about me that I thought was private) because the dial 
up connection that I deleted last night has returned! 
I found it again tonight.  So, somehow Naviant has 
apparently placed an .exe file on my computer and I am 
pissed!!!  Searching my computer for "Naviant" only 
brings up the notes I typed and filed under that name 
or containing that word.

Any ideas?  Any help much appreciated.  I use Norton 
firewall and am puzzled as to how this deed was done to 
me. Thanks in advance!
