Question Strange network connection

i was looking at my network connections today and i saw something strange.



anyone have any idea what this is? my computer has been on for over 3 days and this connection has been on for less than a day and a half. the only thing i can connect it to could be my radeon aiw, but ive never seen it before. its showing a 30Mbps connection but no traffic.

Yup. Happened just the one time. I never bothered looking into it.

-OC

EDIT: ok, so I got curious. I found this on Kodak's website:

***
Local Area Connection 2 Icon in View Network Connections

Problem/Symptom:

A Local Area Connection 2 icon appears in the View Network Connections section of My Network Places. The following information is displayed below the icon: Microsoft TV/Video Connection.

Resolution:

This behavior is by design. To work around it, restart the computer. After you restart, the icon will not appear.

I have an HP digicam, so I assume the cause is the same.
