NEVER use the “start/search” function in Windows xp, which silently connects on port 80 to sa.windows.com (207.46.248.249) in order to deliver to the ugly microsoft's minions your IP and what you are searching for on your own HardDisk. Start/search - in Windows XP - is MALWARE eo ipso.

Well actually this may be related to some version of windows, because I did not see that, using a DOS console :

netstat -an & netstat -an & netstat -an & netstat -an & netstat -an

Can you give more evidence ?

Workaround is to alias put MS Ip to loopback :

# file:///etc/hosts
# file://%WINDIR%/system32/drivers/etc/hosts

127.0.0.1       localhost
207.46.248.249  localhost # http://rzr.online.fr/q/Spy
