Net Gear Wireless driver (required file)
   

Installed with wireless hardware driver as part of network monitoring service (not hardware operation itself). You can get repeated error pop-ups, even though adapter is working OK, you need to close down the vendors WLAN monitor service, and let Windows XP built-in Wireless Zero Config (WZC) tool run instead. e.g. go to Control Panel/Administartive Tools/Services, Stop the Belkin/Netgear/service and switch it to Manual restart.
