Possibly related to this perhaps?

Good old bug in Windows XP. Maybe the first time your pooter tried to connect to this viral network it was called dcuc160, and now every time it sees another it still thinks it's dcuc160. Don't know where network manager keeps its settings but maybe if you found out and purged them perhaps??
Rgds,

Our Dell Vostro V13 laptop keeps telling us that there's a WiFi network called dcuc160 which it successfully connects to, unfortunately it doesn't actually work.
This network appears wherever we are, even in Belgium on our boat and at home where there aren't any neighbours in wireless range so I don't think it's any sort of real network.
How can we get rid of it as it's a right pain. I've searched for dcuc160 on Google and got just one hit for "Duelund Coherent Audio CAST inductors homepage", not relevant!
