Funny you mention that, i was just about to disable that.

Just a note, the only thing thats changed is my switch, I was using a  
Foundry and everything ran fine, now I'm using some POS DLINK (it  
actually ran some poor fool $1,400).

I don't really have a choice with the DLINK for now had to invest $  
elsewhere.
