1) Message boards : Questions and problems : Network in use by BOINC despite being suspended (Message 37021)

Post:
I just recently returned to using BOINC with the WCG projects. I have a slow DSL connection and use VOIP (without any good QOS on router) and I noticed right away that my call quality was suffering, but this was while BOINC was suspended (computation is suspended, network activity is suspended). I even manually suspended network activity from the menu. Yet, using ProcessExplorer I can see that boinc.exe and boincmgr.exe are sending and receiving data, and there are no transfers showing on the Transfers tab. Can anyone explain why BOINC is still using my network and how to truly restrict this? Thanks.

PS I am using version 6.10.58 on Windows XP. The current tasks are HFCC and FAAH.
