The FAQ does not mention any of the products I have, namely, Panda
Internet Security and nVidia ForceWare.  The problem went away when I
uninstalled Panda and I hope it will not return even though I am going
to reinstall it, albeit without the firewall component.  (Having two
firewalls is a bad thing, of course; I thought the installer would be
smart enough not to install its firewall on top of the other.).
