I've just switched on a PC for the first time in several months, and I'm periodically getting the following Windows Security dialogue box prompting me for a Username / password:
Now, the server name in question relates to my previous job, and I did have email, VPN etc for that job set up on this machine. I thought I'd uninstalled everything related to that, but obviously not, and it seems that something is still trying to connect & is then triggering the dialogue.
How can I tell what the errant program is that's trying to establish this connection?

Please get System Explorer installed and try to check the process tree which is invoking this. When the dialogue box appears, there must be a corresponding entry in currently running processes. Click "go to process". You'll see the process tree from which its originated. If this doesn't solve, check the process related modules in System Explorer.
